That's a weird version number jump & the firmware page does not indicate which device it is for.

My Clara Colour on 5.18 got this update earlier when I tried to sync.
From what I can tell, 6.0 is only for the Clara BW, Clara Colour, Libra Colour and Elipsa 2E. Last edited by MrSilverstrike; Yesterday at 05:28 PM. |

In the changelog they mention that epub and kepub use the same renderer now –*but it has been that way for years in 5.x. Does that mean 4.x users will get this update as well?

It's just a newer 5.x version that got a major version bump. It's mostly the same vs 5.18, the latest accessibility/early access OS version that you could opt-in into.
4.x users don't get this version yet (unless you opt-in)! |

Since I still had the installer kicking around, I tried installing it and did not work.

What's the best way to block firmware updates these days? I'm not ready for this gamma release.

Unless you are using a Kobo Libra Colour, a Kobo Clara Colour or a Kobo Clara BW or Kobo Elipsa 2E, are in an EU country and choose to update to the acessibility firmware (V5 or higher), you have no worries as yet. A few other special cases can allow updating to the V5/V6 firmware outside the EU but no public releases as yet and no private releases as yet for older devices.

The fact that we just got such a version jump is just wild. If they use semantic versioning there must have been some breaking changes under the hood.

Perhaps this is the release note (as there seem to be none after it)?
