Please note: do_anduinos_upgrade will only update in a forked version of AnduinOS. Please read more about versions upgrade here.

v1.4.0 (Forked from 1.3.7)

  • Changed the base system from Plucky (Ubuntu 25.04) to Questing (Ubuntu 25.10).
  • Gnome was bumped to 49.
  • Kernel was bumped to 6.17.

  • gnome-startup-applications was removed. See reason here.
  • Use sudo-rs to as the default sudo command.
  • Removed Gnome Evince and added Gnome Papers as the default PDF viewer.
  • Removed X11 support. Wayland is now the only display server. (This change was from upstream Ubuntu 25.10)
  • Uses Firefox ESR to replace the regular Firefox as the default web browser. This is because the Canonical launchpad http://ppa.launchpad.net/mozillateam/ppa/ubuntu/dists/questing/ no longer provides the latest Firefox builds for Questing.
  • Added new app gnome-calendar as default calendar app. Pinned to the start menu by default.

Important: OS Branding Changes

  • The /etc/os-release branding file was changed. OS ID from ubuntu changed to anduinos.
  • Patch /usr/bin/add-apt-repository to trick the software-properties-common to think we are using Ubuntu. This is because some PPAs do not support AnduinOS.
  • Pin software-properties-common as not to be upgraded. This is to avoid breaking the above patch.
  • Patched the file /etc/legal to update the OS name information.
  • Added fastfetch package to the default app list to show system information in the terminal. Correctly show the logo based on /etc/os-release file.
