Debian version history

Debian releases do not follow a fixed schedule. Recent releases have been made around every two years by the Debian Project. The most recent version of Debian is Debian version 12, codename "Bookworm".[1] The next up and coming release of Debian is Debian 13, codename "Trixie".[2]

Debian always has at least three active branches at any time: "stable", "testing" and "unstable".[3] The stable branch is considered the primary release and what most people refer to when talking about Debian. The testing branch contains packages that have been imported from unstable. Testing has significantly more up-to-date packages than stable and is frozen some time before a release to become the next version of Debian. The unstable release (also known as Sid) is the branch where active development takes place. It is the most volatile version of Debian.

When the Debian stable branch is replaced with a newer release, the current stable becomes an "oldstable" release. When the Debian stable branch is replaced again, the oldstable release becomes the "oldoldstable" release. Oldoldstable is eventually moved to the archived releases repository.[4]

Naming convention edit

Debian distribution codenames are based on the names of characters from the Toy Story films. Debian's unstable trunk is named after Sid, a character who regularly destroyed his toys.[5]

Release cycle edit

Debian Unstable, known as "Sid", contains all the latest packages as soon as they are available, and follows a rolling-release model.[6]

Once a package has been in Debian Unstable for 2-10 days (depending on the urgency of the upload), doesn't introduce critical bugs and doesn't break other packages (among other conditions), it is included in Debian Testing, also known as "next-stable".[7]

On average about every two years, Debian Testing enters a "freeze" cycle, where new packages are held back unless they fix critical bugs.[8][9] This frozen state lasts on average 7 months (but can be as short as one month).[8] Once Debian Testing doesn't contain any more release critical bugs, it is declared "stable" and released with a version number.[9]

  1. ^ The number of hardware architectures supported
  2. ^ Extended long-term support (ELTS) provided by Freexian[10] but made available to all Debian users, as noted on official Debian pages. There is no kernel support, and only sponsored packages are supported.[11]
  3. ^ Only 9 are candidates for stable releases.
  4. ^ a b As of 07/05/2022

When a release transitions to long-term support phase (LTS-phase), security is no longer handled by the main Debian security team.[62] Only a subset of Debian architectures are eligible for Long Term Support, and there is no support for packages in backports.[63]

Release history edit

Debian 1.0 was never released, as a vendor accidentally shipped a development release with that version number.[64] The package management system dpkg and its front-end dselect were developed and implemented on Debian in a previous release. A transition from the a.out binary format to the ELF binary format had already begun before the planned 1.0 release. The only supported architecture was Intel 80386 (i386).[12]

Debian 11 (Bullseye) edit

 
Debian 11 (Bullseye) with GNOME

Debian 11 (Bullseye) was released on 14 August 2021.[1] It is based on the Linux 5.10 LTS kernel and will be supported for five years.[229]

On 12 November 2020, it was announced that "Homeworld", by Juliette Taka, will be the default theme for Debian 11, after winning a public poll held with eighteen choices.[230]

Bullseye dropped the remaining Qt4/KDE 4 libraries and Python 2,[231][232] and shipped with Qt 5.15 KDE Plasma 5.20.[233] Available desktops include Gnome 3.38, KDE Plasma 5.20, LXDE 11, LXQt 0.16, MATE 1.24, and Xfce 4.16.[234][235][236]

Bullseye does not support the older big-endian 32-bit MIPS architectures.[237] This is not to be confused with the more common i386 32-bit architecture which is still supported.

The first of the code freezes, readying Debian 11 for release, began on 12 January 2021.[238]

Development freeze timetable:

  • 12 January, 2021: transition freeze[238]

Debian 3.1 Sarge (6 June 2005): named for the sergeant of the Green Plastic Army Men. No new architectures were added to the release, although an unofficial AMD64 port was published at the same time and distributed through the new Alioth project hosting site. This release features a new installer: debian-installer, a modular piece of software that feature automatic hardware detection, unattended installation features and was released fully translated to over thirty languages. It was also the first release to include a full office suite: OpenOffice.org. Branden Robinson had just been appointed as Project Leader. This release was made by more than nine hundred Debian developers, and contained around 15,400 binary packages and 14 binary CDs in the official set.

New installations would not need to reboot through the installation process as the previous two phases of installation were now integrated. This new installer provided support for scripts using composed characters and complex languages in its graphical version, increasing the number of available translations to over fifty. Sam Hocevar was appointed Project Leader the very same day, and the project included more than one thousand and thirty Debian developers. The release contained around 18,000 binary packages over 20 binary CDs (3 DVDs) in the official set. There were also two binary CDs available to install the system with alternate desktop environments different from the default one.

Last year it was decided to increase the minimum CPU features for the i386 architecture to 686-class in the stretch release cycle. This means dropping support for 586-class and hybrid 586/686 processors[1].(Support for 486-class processors was dropped, somewhat accidentally, in squeeze.) This was implemented in the Linux kernel packages starting with Linux 4.3, which was uploaded to unstable in December last year. In case you missed that change, gcc for i386 has recently been changed to target 686-class processors and is generating code that will crash on other processors. Any such systems still running testing or unstable will need to be switched to run stable (jessie). The older processors will continue to be supported in jessie until at least 2018, and until 2020 if i386 is included in jessie LTS. The following processors, supported in jessie, are now unspported: * AMD K5, K6, K6-2, (aka K6 3D), K6-3 * DM&P/SiS Vortex86, Vortex86SX * Cyrix III, MediaGX, MediaGXm * IDT Winchip C6, Winchip 2 * Intel Pentium, Pentium with MMX * Rise mP6 * VIA C3 'Samuel 2', C3 'Ezra'
  194. ^ "Release architectures for Debian 9 'Stretch'". from the original on 6 November 2016. Retrieved 28 May 2017. The only change from Jessie is the removal of powerpc as a release architecture. We discussed this at length, and eventually took the view that the least disservice to users of that port is to provide reasonable notice of its discontinuation. We recognise and acknowledge that discontinuing any port is unavoidably disruptive. The question of whether powerpc remains an architecture in the main archive or moves to ports is one for FTP masters, not the release team.
  195. ^ "Debian Is Dropping Support for Older 32-bit Hardware Architectures in Debian 9". from the original on 31 October 2019. Retrieved 9 February 2020. The change has already been implemented to the Linux kernel 4.3 packages, which have been uploaded to the Debian Unstable repositories last year. And today users are being informed to move to Debian GNU/Linux 8 "Jessie" if they're still using Debian on older computers powered by i586 or i486 processors. If i386 support is to be included in the Debian GNU/Linux 8 "Jessie" release, which should enter LTS (Long Term Support) stage from May 2018, the operating system will then support older 32-bit processors until the year 2020.

Debian releases do not follow a fixed schedule Recent releases have been made around every two years by the Debian Project The most recent version of Debian is Debian version 12 codename Bookworm 1 The next up and coming release of Debian is Debian 13 codename Trixie 2 A screenshot of Debian 10 Buster with the GNOME desktop environment Debian always has at least three active branches at any time stable testing and unstable 3 The stable branch is considered the primary release and what most people refer to when talking about Debian The testing branch contains packages that have been imported from unstable Testing has significantly more up to date packages than stable and is frozen some time before a release to become the next version of Debian The unstable release also known as Sid is the branch where active development takes place It is the most volatile version of Debian When the Debian stable branch is replaced with a newer release the current stable becomes an oldstable release When the Debian stable branch is replaced again the oldstable release becomes the oldoldstable release Oldoldstable is eventually moved to the archived releases repository 4 Contents 1 Naming

codenames are based on the names of characters from the Toy Story films Debian s unstable trunk is named after Sid a character who regularly destroyed his toys 5 Release cycle editDebian Unstable known as Sid contains all the latest packages as soon as they are available and follows a rolling release model 6 Once a package has been in Debian Unstable for 2 10 days depending on the urgency of the upload doesn t introduce critical bugs and doesn t break other packages among other conditions it is included in Debian Testing also known as next stable 7 On average about every two years Debian Testing enters a freeze cycle where new packages are held back unless they fix critical bugs 8 9 This frozen state lasts on average 7 months but can be as short as one month 8 Once Debian Testing doesn t contain any more release critical bugs it is declared stable and released with a version number 9 Release table editVer Code name Release date Final latest release date No of Archs i Package

i386 architecture to 686 class in the stretch release cycle This means dropping support for 586 class and hybrid 586 686 processors 1 Support for 486 class processors was dropped somewhat accidentally in squeeze This was implemented in the Linux kernel packages starting with Linux 4 3 which was uploaded to unstable in December last year In case you missed that change gcc for i386 has recently been changed to target 686 class processors and is generating code that will crash on other processors Any such systems still running testing or unstable will need to be switched to run stable jessie The older processors will continue to be supported in jessie until at least 2018 and until 2020 if i386 is included in jessie LTS The following processors supported in jessie are now unspported AMD K5 K6

disruptive The question of whether powerpc remains an architecture in the main archive or moves to ports is one for FTP masters not the release team Debian Is Dropping Support for Older 32 bit
