Kokua 26.1.0 Release Notes

This release brings Kokua to parity with LL’s 26.1.0 release https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/26.1.0.22641522367.html

The main feature of the LL release is the re-introduction of floater based searches. Kokua already had this functionality, via a port from Firestorm, however we have switched over to LL’s version for this release.

Some minor layout changes will be noted, however the functionality is the same.

Also in this release:

  • RLV: Fixes from Kentron to correctly disable the Detach options in the Outfits/Outfits and Outfits/Worn panels when detaching is not allowed by RLV

  • RLV: While the viewer was in Do Not Disturb mode @ commands sent in by IM wouldn’t work.

  • RLV: In a situation where an object was being worn which has links in #RLV and is also in #RLV itself @getpath(new) could return the location of the link instead of the actual location

  • A fix from Kentron to improve the behaviour of Close All Windows

  • Part of a terrain loading improvement by LL is backed out which resolves the problem of HUDs etc not working correctly after a teleport

  • Fixes by LL that should significantly reduce issues with Teleports and Inventory updating failures have been brought in ahead of their release by LL

  • Linux: Use of gconftool-2 removed. However, problems with gconftool-2 would only present as a Warning message during installation. If Kokua fails to run on a Linux platform it’s likely that the C Library is not new enough. Kokua is currently built on Ubuntu 24 LTS and needs an equivalent or newer platform. The platform requirements are dictated by the version requirements for CEF and WebRTC.

  • Windows: LL made some changes around Bugsplat bug reporting as part of updating versions which wasn’t discovered until I tried to do a release build with bug reporting turned on. This release has bug reporting disabled and the problem will be investigated after the release.
