From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

New Debian release on the horizon? (lemmy.ml)

Looking at Debian's release-critical bugs, you can see that Trixie is close:
Testing now has fewer critical bugs than Stable, and the number is dropping quickly.
About 200 bugs still need to be fixed to get the number down to where the previous releases were done.

Maybe you can help? Bugs blocking the next release can be as simple as missing translations for the upgrade instructions.

It's on backports :D

(I'm actually running it from the Zabbly repos.)

I know, but I can't enable backports. Same goes for the risks with using the Zabbly and their dependencies.

Ah, sucks :(

I'm looking forward to see where Incus OS goes, or TrueNAS Scale. Honestly, I was very tempted to automate a procedure to take a Proxmox ZFS install and replace the Proxmox bits with Incus bits :) Incus + ZFS as an appliance would be nice. I kinda don't want to think about the underlying OS.

Incus OS

That will be the end of Proxmox. And I really hope it happens fast.
