+**framework**
+
+- various enhancements, including:
+    - improve behavior when using extension which has `nosource` enabled ([#4506](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4506))
+    - enhance `get_software_libdir` to return `lib` or `lib64` if only one of them contains library files ([#4513](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4513))
+    - implement versions checks to avoid mixing major versions across the EasyBuild components ([#4520](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4520), [#4553](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4553))
+    - add support for easyconfig parameter `module_only` ([#4537](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4537))
+- various bug fixes, including:
+    - fix typo in `patch_step` logging ([#4505](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4505))
+    - consider both `easybuild-framework*.tar.gz` and `easybuild_framework*.tar.gz` in CI workflows ([#4507](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4507))
+    - don't delete existing environment module files when using `--dump-env-script` with `--force` or `--rebuild` ([#4512](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4512))
+    - fix resolved (template) values in case of failure ([#4532](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4532))
+    - also consider `$CRAY_PE_LIBSCI_PREFIX_DIR` to determine installation prefix for `cray-libsci` ([#4551](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4551))
+    - symlink downloaded repo at specified commit when using `--from-commit` so easyconfigs for dependencies are found ([#4552](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4552))
+- other changes:
+    - code cleanup in `easyblock.py` ([#4519](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4519))
+    - stop running unit tests on Python 3.5 ([#4530](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-framework/pull/4530))
+

+    - allow `nosource: True` in PythonPackage extensions ([#3305](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks/pull/3305))
+    - auto-disable FFTW quad precision on RISC-V ([#3314](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks/pull/3314))
+    - use regular `configure` instead of wrapper script in easyblock for UCX plugins ([#3315](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks/pull/3315))
+    - add libjpeg-turbo to include dir for torchvision easyblock ([#3322](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks/pull/3322), [#3353](https://github.com/easybuilders/easybuild-easyblocks/pull/3353))
