*This is a draft!* h2. Linux Distributions This article lists for which Linux distributions we provide Osmocom binary packages, and where these distributions are used in our CI infrastructure. h3. Debian h4. Releases Binary packages are provided for the following "Debian releases":https://www.debian.org/releases/: * unstable (sid) * testing (trixie) * 12 (bookworm) * 11 (bullseye) * 10 (buster) h4. CI infrastructure CI uses the latest stable Debian release where possible (master builds and various other jenkins jobs). Building Debian packages is verified in gerrit verifications for the oldest and newest Debian release that we build binary packages for. The <code>ttcn3-*-test</code> and <code>ttcn3-*-test-latest</code> jobs use the latest stable Debian release for testsuites and SUT (system under test, the Osmocom programs). h4. Adding/removing releases * Adding binary packages for new Debian releases should be done in our OBS, after they are usable via https://build.opensuse.org. * Removal of binary packages for releases is not that urgent, as long as we don't see build or unit test failures just on those old releases. * If we do see build or unit test failures, we should remove the distro from the builds and not invest time in workarounds. h3. Raspbian / Raspberry Pi OS h4. Releases Binary packages are provided for the these last two stable releases of Raspbian. h4. CI infrastructure The CI jobs that run on ARM use the latest Raspbian release. h3. Ubuntu h4. Releases Binary packages are provided for the following "Ubuntu releases":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_version_history#Table_of_versions: * 23.04 * 22.04 LTS * 20.04 LTS h4. Adding/removing releases * Have the current supported non-LTS release (if any), and the last 2 supported LTS releases h3. CentOS h4. Releases Binary packages are provided for the following CentOS releases: * CentOS 8 * CentOS 7 (only few packages) h4. CI infrastructure Building CentOS 8 packages is verified in gerrit verifications against almalinux:8. The <code>ttcn3-centos-*</code> jobs use almalinux:8 for the SUT. h4. Adding/removing releases * CentOS releases are added or removed on demand. h3. OpenSUSE h4. Releases Binary packages are provided for the following "openSUSE releases":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenSUSE#Version_history: * Tumbleweed (rolling) * 15.5 (latest) * 15.4 h4.
