Lumina Desktop 1.6.2
Lumina v1.6.2 has been released.
Release notes can be found here: https://lumina-desktop.org/post/2021-12-25/
Lumina Desktop 1.6.1
This is a minor but long awaited update that finally brings in the downstream theme work that we did for Project Trident. There are a few other minor bug fixes that have been sitting in the Master Branch that are included as well, since the prior v1.6.0 tagged release was so long ago.
Note to Packagers:
As of this version there is an additional dependency on the La Capitaine Icon Theme. The fallback old Google Material Design Icon Themes are still included for OSes and distros without a package for La Capitaine, however we are planning on eventually removing them at some pointin the future. For more information on that icon theme, see the updated Core [ReadMe] for a link to that icon themes' github repo.
Also there are two additional binaries included, which you may need to update your build scripts to handle: lumina-checkpass and lumina-pingcursor.
