• [$] Debian debates amending architecture support stratagem

    From LWN.net@86:200/23 to All on Thu Nov 20 06:40:07 2025


    The Linux kernel
    supports a large number of architectures.
    Not all of those are supported by Linux distributions, but Debian does support many of them, officially or unofficially. On October 26, Bastian Blank

    opened a discussion about the minimum version of these architectures
    that Debian should support: in particular, raising the de-facto minimum versions in the next Debian release ("forky"). Thread participants were generally in favor of
    keeping support for older architecture variants, but didn't reach a firm conclusion.
