Hi all, I am pleased to announce the unofficial Debian monthly testing snapshot release for October 2011 (version 2011.10). This release is currently available for i386 and amd64 as iso images downloadable from: http://alioth.debian.org/~gilbert-guest/snapshots/2011.10/debian-testing-snapshot-2011.10-i386-mini.iso sha512sum: 01ff749fd76c84b2b60733b934d13597b85d26c80a01fec8486b56fa2d6be460378309ab8134b2ef8ea7b8eafa0f4fcfc57cb2c8997a161643ad2b350efad1a6 http://alioth.debian.org/~gilbert-guest/snapshots/2011.10/debian-testing-snapshot-2011.10-amd64-mini.iso sha512sum: a118e5bceeb457f536b9232b769f07fc86c421264c7c12b14d1c99696657c5f441fec291e4926e8a219a37bb769f1f22330856c5ce8b95aa43defb15f637260a These files can be written to CD or DVD media or directly to a USB stick. Instructions for USB installation can be found here: http://www.debian.org/releases/squeeze/i386/ch04s03.html.en IMPORTANT: There will be no inherent security support for these snapshot releases. The images do automatically set up testing-security as an apt source during installation, so any DTSA's (Debian Testing Security Advisories) will be automatically applied to snapshot installations. However, the security team does not issue many updates this way anymore (optioning instead to primarily use unstable uploads as a means to fix testing). This is an area that could potentially be improved if there are volunteers interested in this problem. For more information on current testing security processes, see: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/secure-testing/doc/narrative_introduction Ideally for those wishing to have a mostly security supported system, the snapshot media will simply be a reliable stepping stone for installation followed by an upgrade to testing proper, which does receive quasi-official support from the security team (i.e. uploads to unstable that transition to testing). To upgrade from a previous snapshot, change your existing snapshot entries in /etc/apt/sources.list to: deb http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110930T160956Z testing main deb-src http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20110930T160956Z testing main Note that upgradability of individual packages isn't necessarily guaranteed. Note that this is an unofficial project since it does not come with the backing or support from Debian as a team, but hopefully that will change in the future as the concept is proven out. Anyway, enjoy! Best wishes, Mike Gilbert -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.11 (GNU/Linux) iQQcBAEBCAAGBQJOj2fNAAoJELjWss0C1vRzWGgf/itcKH4NRNVenguruzev3+XW YoWxTd1Wzli0/TYdnXDPxVWEWxnT7j1ciTC00YRiam2Kd3FX01jtn0sbsRJPsd7U 6mUYqMYQnRwxg8hJUA4ZlgjwZ+OQxKQ3RsIAJvW/5v8uig9cN4EWtPtP6fhngBHW xkRMAMoalrPY7AQMf0PGtEHPrtM2sFW8fSWbOKP58jQQJd/WbOkdkbJ6ho+ml/wI rqHTMnPfLAmOes3Rb66krun7ZXVtn2NaRa2/ZlIYVs38kL6HGKoFCLFsmWE2Neaa aBQnDZSnuCNwz6a7ZVGuDW3Xm8fV7jN/aZdpOznGThKXjnnQIOVNRQwu6YeUI1k+ enSswgPdowthDRIW+wI1ojcyCnueN7BUKy4zj8yQ4pWDQnF2krlN05pGymGYhlan txUioAqwziir+iwbHqkqwarxQBzHa6BwFDjpqVphyq3tI9qZM9HmCdEK38PFw33V mho95fN6yXFTTVAXzECN87ee6lOlONcc243LzsCeArkNKL9RfcE+SBwuckhKZKrW 12UYciEGOR+lm01Sb5gWBNpNs5FWQaxB6UWwLfKZSo4iJUbWeEejz6GWoorLoXPS XRznuB3b8Bwdz63cLsC5vdepv6y6eDtmKOb7I7Z+lp5tXTzFGebKWbkmsL5btuER +PZJoLd34lIKW+6TZ2AwfXIJuHPxHv3X6vY9Y7DN6TiPbZR8HMhgJQJAxcOVicUM c6/g1xJUopLJqOeaTyZwCPuJlW7Y2wvox1QdGYW2iRwBmZCg8TaqGjRCIbi/aQf0 QvYlKV/OjeRCRbopzW71lqlwih7SJmb062aC1epvo+gRjPaRsSR4uCRnLwsOePro 7+yyMymzAKHybSUMkxdkkybP3It967RXT6mLQAKlvNB3b8PsPIZSnRXnUAca04YJ /G9snGIAA1A9cFUdBRsmgUQ93xMZFIHNatqc87ue8ZwG5fWC+KoYwpzfp514Y4+4 bJGYFKE+HU4emGogrbRFooCHguaNdzllEZla5GtoARqm+2mLMGbBS+aPBDcNQAQ4 2SCgxQ5bmcnB7Zh+vgR9/qPKVI/O23kZn8Csq/5FRlDiWxxa9yCjfWFG9YRFDbZv 5jhw5wfpMcCKcz0B5B+Soh+qeedVjcnnka1a40ssyFLSBxhaVyrFvBnQocLSwmLg OpbAreBMBL0doHS/pQwMH/Y7Cjs+x5ZoWq8Xe4wnrqUe9VQS0v+g0yMsAVh5ILxP psZDysTtip1gam+pFVKD2q+rj3vfmX0zrk/X6pv2XJlPd3NFGbiTnpfSj1uL7+uN L03EzWHAEeuggGUfLy+3jOtVqr6onl00ddl/XW1k/E74E1BjEgmSXKMYBAG7M70= =nuw8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
