LinuxCNC 2.9.1 has been released (there was no 2.9.0 release)
This marks a major new release of LinuxCNC. Due to the difficulty of supporting both Python3 and Python2 and various out-of-date libraries the 2.9 release of LinuxCNC is only supported in Debian Buster or later, Ubuntu Focal and later and Rasbian 12 and later. Furthermore we are no longer building any 32-bit versions of any packages. This update is recommended to all users of supported systems and hardware. There may be a final 2.8 release to incorporate new drivers and features for those unable to upgrade.
