The project to get LinuxCNC included in the main Debian distribution
is totally decoupled from the project to make the next release of
LinuxCNC. Do not take the Debian packaging progress as a sign that
2.9 is getting close to release.
It would be great if we could get LinuxCNC into Debian *and* finalize
2.9 before the next major release of Debian is frozen. That'll be
Debian 12 "Bookworm", and it's probably a year or so away, I think.
The "get LinuxCNC into Debian" project (spearheaded by Steffen Möller
and Petter Reinholdtsen of debian.org, thank you!!) is currently in
the hands of the Debian ftpmasters group, which scrutinizes new
packages before they get accepted. The ftpmasters are currently
swamped with all the new incoming packages that people want to add to
Debian after the recent-ish release of Debian 11 Bullseye, and we must
wait patiently.
The "release the next version of LinuxCNC" is something we should
probably start thinking and talking about internally... I'll start a
new thread for that.
Sebastian,
Thank you for clarifying that. If there is something I can do to help
2.9 along, I would be glad help. I'll give 2.9 a try.
Regards,
Andy
