KDE Frameworks 6.23.0 has been released, featuring improved Baloo indexing and enhanced memory safety by cleaning up the file-indexing pipeline and tightening ownership rules. Significant changes include optimizing how Baloo handles database write locks, which reduces indexing latency by about a third for typical users, and enabling LeakSanitizer to catch memory bugs during continuous integration. The update also introduces visual enhancements to Breeze icons and adjustments to Bluez Qt to prevent compiler warnings. Developers relying on Baloo should consider upgrading, but those using older Qt versions will need to update their packages first

KDE Frameworks 6.23.0 Brings Faster Baloo Indexing and Improved Memory Safety

KDE Frameworks 6.23.0 has been released to improve Baloo indexing and overall memory safety, with a focus on cleaning up the file-indexing pipeline and tightening ownership rules across core components. The update also includes changes to Bluez Qt and Breeze icons, such as a new "update-busy" state and color-aware kdeconnect-symbolic assets that respect dark themes. LeakSanitizer has been enabled in the release to catch memory bugs before they ship, although this may result in a modest increase in build time for some projects. Developers who rely on Baloo should consider upgrading to 6.23.0, but those using older Qt versions will need to upgrade their packages first.
