Fedora 24
Fedora 24 was released on 21st June 2016.
There are no major changes or amazing new features just a host of usability improvements as well as the usual software upgrades.
GNOME has been updated to the latest upstream release (3.20),
the GNU C Library is now at version 2.23, the System compiler has been updated to GCC 6 and Python has moved from 3.4 to Python 3.5.
There are also updates to NetworkManager (version 1.2) and glibc
has been upgraded to 2.23.
A most noticeable change is the default font which has now moved to Cantarell.
This is a really nice looking clear font which I personally thinks looks much better.
Fedora 24 has continued improving the X replacement, Wayland.
Although this is still not the default it is available as an option for users to try out.
From Fedora 24 on wards users can now perform major version upgrades via the GUI rather than the command line. The updates can be run from the Software app upgrade system which will have a clearly marked "Install" button.
This is another solid release from the Fedora team.
The user interface continues to look sleek and professional and there are a plethora of tools to help you get the job done.
