Deepin is currently experiencing some heavy updating - not without issues I’m afraid, but we are doing our best to keep everything as smooth as possible there. We expect things to calm down again in the near future with deepin development and am planning on releasing another Manjaro-Deepin edition then …

As usual we also updated most of our kernels to the latest point-releases, pushed out some new versions of Pamac, Calamares and our Manjaro-Tools.

If you have however some issues you can’t fix on your own, please post them in detail, so we may help you out. Also it is possible to start fresh with Manjaro v17.0.1 release, which includes this update.
