| Xenguy | Did a largish 'apt-get update' this morning; was that a Debian point release, and if so, is there one in the offing for Devuan? | 19:37 |
|---|---|---|
| Xenguy | Also, while I think of it, what about the archiving of Beowulf? | 19:38 |
| fsmithred | I'm not aware of any discussions about a daedalus point release and I don't look forward to one. | 19:39 |
| Xenguy | Nor I ; -) | 19:39 |
| fsmithred | They are only useful for people who do offline installs. | 19:40 |
| fsmithred | So I was wrong, and I do have something to say about it. | 19:41 |
| Xenguy | Hrm not sure if I am missing something of your last statement | 19:43 |
| fsmithred | Well, I already said more than I initially claimed to be willing to do. | 19:45 |
| fsmithred | For me, building new stable isos is pretty easy. It's all the other stuff that goes with it that's a pain. | 19:46 |
| bb|hcb | Point releases come automagically to Devuan. As far as know, we do not release ISOs for the point releases | 19:46 |
| fsmithred | yes we do, but not very often | 19:46 |
| fsmithred | maybe twice since we started | 19:46 |
| fsmithred | testing, signing and changing any docs is the harder part. | 19:47 |
| tempforever | "testing" - isnt' that what users are for? lol :-) | 19:47 |
| fsmithred | when we're doing betas or previews, yeah | 19:48 |
| fsmithred | but I still have to make sure it boots before I make it available | 19:48 |
| fsmithred | and then there's the torrent that needs to be changed | 19:50 |
| Xenguy | bb|hcb, We have previously; I remember it (them?) because it felt painful ; -) | 19:52 |
| Xenguy | If we can get away with not doing point releases, I would certainly not object. | 19:52 |
| Xenguy | fsmithred, Agreed, full stop | 19:53 |
| bb|hcb | The only point of point ISOs are offline installs, IMHO. Online ones will update after install and will be OK | 19:58 |
| Xenguy | Makes sense to me, so if that's true, why not avoid point releases? The new version will arrive soon enough, and in the meantime folks can install and then 'apt-get update', no biggie | 20:00 |
| onefang | Debian is working on Bullseye 11.11 and Bookworm 12.7 this weekend. So yep, point releases. | 23:33 |
