The KDE Project has released KDE Gear 24.12.2, marking the second maintenance update for the KDE Gear 24.12 software suite. This update comes approximately one month after KDE Gear 24.12.1, addressing various issues across KDE applications.
Notable fixes within this release include resolving a regression in Dolphin’s file manager on X11, which affected keyboard focus when the application was minimized and subsequently restored. Improvements have also been made to the KDE Itinerary travel assistant, enhancing document extractors for several airlines and public transport services, along with restoring data access for specific transit systems in Finland and Germany.
Additional updates touch on the Tokodon client for Mastodon, where a bug causing the application to stall during account authentication was fixed. Other optimizations involve loading IMAP tags more efficiently and correcting SQL queries to comply with the Akonadi background service’s limitations for KDE PIM apps.
KDE Gear 24.12.2 also benefits several other applications, including Akregator, KMail, Kdenlive, KOrganizer, KDevelop, Kate, and Spectacle. Users are encouraged to check their preferred GNU/Linux distribution’s stable software repositories for the updated packages.
