• The story behind Google's in-house desktop Linux

    From OSnews@21:1/5 to All on Mon Aug 1 22:31:07 2022
    If you look around Google';s Mountain View, CA offices, you';ll see Windows machines, Chromebooks, Macs - and gLinux desktops. G what, you ask? Well, in addition to  relying on Linux for its servers, Google has its very own Linux desktop distribution.
    You can';t get it - darn it! - but for more than a decade, Google has been baking and eating its own homemade Linux desktop distribution. The first version was Goobuntu.

    It';s not news that Google has it';s own in-house desktop Linux distribution, but this article provides some interesting insights into some of its unique aspects. The latest versions now use a rolling release model based on Debian, with a custom
    automated package building and testing tool on top, developed by Google.

    I';d love to see it in action and have it released to the public.
