LichtSpektren writes: Ubuntu 15.10 “Wily Werewolf” is now released and available, along with its alternative desktop flavors (MATE, Xfce, LXDE, GNOME, KDE, Kylin). This release features Linux 4.2, GCC 5, Python 3.5, and LibreOffice 5. The default version is still using X.org display server and Unity7; Mark Shuttleworth has said that Mir and Unity8 won’t arrive until Ubuntu 16.04 “Xenial Xerus.” Not much has changed beyond package updates, other than replacing the invisible overlay scrollbars in Nautilus with the GNOME 3 scrollbars. Phoronix brings us the only bit of drama regarding this release: Jonathan Riddell, long time overseer of Kubuntu, has resigned with claims that Canonical has “defrauded donors and broke the copyright licenses.” Another reader adds a link to a Q & A session with Riddell.
