Raspberry Pi OS 12 (Bookworm) released

[tomaxsas]

Props to bitlab! Nice work on the repo and nice graphic as well.

I haven't tried using any of the bookworm packages yet but I did try a little experiment with the localui since I keep reading about Wayland displacing X11. Some of the descriptions are a bit opaque.

Test object: 

• Pi3B+ with official 7" display
  
• Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm Lite
  
• just enough packages added (imitating the old build instructions vis-a-vis localui) to support X11 and Chromium
  
• edited /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config: allow_users=anybody
  
• added /lib/systemd/system/localui.service
  
• added /home/<default user>/.xinitrc
  
• edited .xinitrc so --app=https://moodeaudio.org
  

Rebooted.

et voilà

Here's the screen after reboot



Maybe the rest of you already expected this but I'm relieved.
