What's New
Release notes appear mismatched: v25.08 describes unrelated niri compositor changes versus v6.5.0 Rust tooling.
Breaking Changes
- Wiki contents reportedly moved from wiki/ to docs/wiki/, which breaks any tooling or packaging that references the old path.
- Some tests now require surfaceless EGL at test time and must be skipped with --skip=::egl where unavailable.
- libdisplay-info must remain at 0.2 rather than 0.3, so dependency bumps beyond that will fail.
New Features
- A new project logo was introduced.
- An interactive wiki interface with full-text search was added.
- xwayland-satellite integration enables running X11 applications.
- Basic screen reader support, verified with Orca, was added.
- A modal confirmation dialog now guards exiting the session.
Improvements
- A new 'Integrating niri' wiki page documents distribution packaging guidance.
- Packager-facing notes were consolidated to clarify test and dependency requirements.
Upgrade Notes
The v25.08 notes describe a Wayland compositor and do not correspond to the v6.5.0 Rust tooling codebase, so confirm you are reading the correct repository and tag before upgrading. If the newer notes are authoritative, relocate wiki content to docs/wiki/ and ensure surfaceless EGL is available in CI. Do not carry over the Rust 2024 edition or MSRV 1.88 assumptions without verifying them against v25.08.
