Phoronix Test Suite 6.6.1 Released
Building off Phoronix Test Suite 6.6 that was officially released earlier this month, shipping today is the first and only planned point release to the 6.6-Loppa series.
Phoronix Test Suite 6.6.1 isn't a big maintenance release but just has a few non-critical changes:
- Various minor BSD support improvements.
- A phoronix-test-suite list-not-installed-tests has been added for convenience of seeing tests available that aren't currently installed on the system, rather than using just list-installed-tests or list-tests.
- A phoronix-test-suite php-conf sub-command that just provides some PHP-related diagnostics information about PHP extensions being used or not.
- Detection for the QupZilla browser when no other browser or alias is present on the system for being able to auto-launch the results viewer.
- Phodevi has been support for reporting overclocked memory frequencies when properly exposed via dmidecode.
- The PTS External Dependencies XML has been added with optional dependency support for Python SciPy and Python SciKit Learn packages, which is needed by the new scikit-learn test profile.
That's about it for this lone point release. Development is now focusing on Phoronix Test Suite 6.8-Tana as the next quarterly release due out before the end of 2016.
