The update (which came as a surprise) broke two of my programs:

  1. MS Teams didn’t startup anymore, giving my just a blank white screen. I had to add --no-sandbox --disable-gpu-sandbox to the invocation, editing the .desktop file.
  2. My MacOS VM running on KVM/QEMU doesn’t work anymore, giving me a kernel panic after the OpenCore boot. No idea why, worked perfectly before the update.

I’d rather deliberately decide to apply a kernel update, instead of getting one applied buried under a bunch of non-critical updates.

Edit: Oh, and all of a sudden, my system presents me with a GRUB boot screen upon startup. Didn’t have one before, GRUB was silent. Go figure…
