Eliminating duplicates in a live data repository is far more important

there is nothing running debian out there AFAIK. The cheap phones without
touch screen run something like KAI OS.
There might be something around SailfishOS Community, that would be open
source, but I don't remember
There is a problem with a USB 3 port on a desktop running Debian.
Until recently, a backup of the system had been regularly performed to
a portable hard drive plugged into the USB 3 port. The drive had been kept
permanently plugged into the port and was only mounted when a backup is
required.

Hello,
I try to setup a service that build a headless netinstall iso.
Is there a way to find the latest version number?
I think grep the https://www.debian.org/CD/netinst/ site is not the best
