In this very moment, during the ongoing annual Debian Developer Conference “Debconf10″ in New York, Debian’s release managers have announced a major step in the development cycle of the upcoming stable release Debian 6.0 Squeeze:
Debian Squeeze has now been frozen.
In consequence this means that no more new features will be added and all work will now be concentrated on polishing Debian Squeeze to achieve the quality Debian stable releases are known for.
The upcoming release will use Linux 2.6.32 as its default kernel in the installer and on all Linux architectures.
New features of the upcoming release include:
- State of the art desktop environments, based on KDE 4.4.5, Gnome 2.30.0, LXDE 0.5.0, XFCE 4.6.2, X.org 7.5, OpenOffice.org 3.2.1 and many other applications.
- Stable and current versions of common server software such as Apache 2.2.16, PHP 5.3.2, MySQL 5.1.48, PostgreSQL 8.4.4 and Samba 3.4.
- Modern interpreters and compilers for all common languages such as Python 2.6 and 3.1, Perl 5.10, GHC 6.12 and GCC 4.4.
- DKMS, a framework to generate Linux kernel modules whose sources do not reside in the Linux kernel source tree.
- Dependency-based ordering of init scripts using insserv, allowing parallel execution to shorten the time needed to boot the system.
