* Wed Jul 16 2025 RN <R_Nik_C@proton.me>
- Update to 2.48.0:
Features:
* Add support for detecting Fedora variants
(gh#fastfetch-cli/fastfetch#1830)
- Currently supported variants: CoreOS, Kinoite, Sericea,
Silverblue
* Improve performance and security when spawning child processes
by replacing `fork-exec` with `posix_spawn` (*nix)
* Trim leading and trailing whitespaces in disk serial numbers
(PhysicalDisk)
* Add /etc/profiles/per-user detection for Nix user packages
(gh#fastfetch-cli/fastfetch#1782)
* Introduce `years` (whole years as integer), `days-of-year`
(days since the last anniversary) and `years-fraction` (years
as fraction, e.g. 1.5 means 1 year and 6 months) formatting
placeholder to `Disk` (since disk creation), `Users` (since
user login) and `Uptime` (since system boot) modules
- For example: `fastfetch -s disk --disk-key 'OS Installation'
- -disk-format '{years} years {days-of-year} days'`
* Add --fraction-ndigits option to specify the number of digits
after the decimal point when displaying ordinary fractional
values
- Typically used with `{years-fraction}` above
- This option does not affect percentage values, sizes, etc,
which are controlled by individual options.
Bugfixes:

`-DBINARY_LINK_TYPE=dlopen`

Logos:
* Improve visibility on white-background terminals for some
logos by replacing white with the default foreground color
- According to Wikipedia, the default foreground color is
implementation-defined. It's usually black for white themes
and white for dark themes. However, some terminals, notably
Konsole with the default theme, use a different color,
which may cause issues with some logos.

* Fri Apr 04 2025 RN <R_Nik_C@proton.me>
- update to 2.40.2
Changes:
* Since v2.40.0, we've been loading config files from the
directory where the fastfetch binary is located. However,
this approach may lead to loading unexpected files. For
example, `fastfetch -c groups` would attempt to load
`/usr/bin/groups`. Therefore, we now enforce the .jsonc
extension when loading config files.
