After a one and a half year lull in development, the release of the Lumina 1.6.1 desktop environment has been published, developed after the termination of TrueOS development as part of the Trident project (desktop distribution of Void Linux). The environment components are written using the Qt5 library (without using QML). Lumina takes a classic approach to organizing the user environment. The structure includes a desktop, an application bar, a session manager, an application menu, an environment settings system, a task manager, a system tray, a virtual desktop system. The project code is written in C++ and distributed under the BSD license.
Fluxbox is used as a window manager. The project also develops its own Insight file manager, which has such features as tab support for simultaneous work with several directories, accumulation of links to favorite directories in the bookmarks section, the presence of a built-in multimedia player and photo viewer with slideshow support, tools for managing ZFS snapshots, support for connecting external plugins-handlers.
Of the changes in the new release, bug fixes and the inclusion of developments related to support for themes are noted. Including by default, a new design theme developed by the Trident project is involved. Dependencies include the La Capitaine icon theme.
