| 3 | h2. Linux Distributions |
||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | This article lists for which Linux distributions we provide Osmocom binary packages, and where these distributions are used in our CI infrastructure. |
||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | h3. Debian |
||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | h4. Releases |
||
| 10 | |||
| 11 | Binary packages are provided for "Debian releases":https://www.debian.org/releases/ unstable (sid), testing (trixie) as well as these stable releases: |
||
| 12 | * 12 (bookworm) |
||
| 13 | * 11 (bullseye) |
||
| 14 | * 10 (buster) |
||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | h4. CI infrastructure |
||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | CI uses the latest stable Debian release where possible (master builds and various other jenkins jobs). |
||
| 19 | |||
| 20 | Building Debian packages is verified in gerrit verifications for the oldest and newest Debian release that we build binary packages for. |
||
| 21 | |||
| 22 | 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). |
||
| 23 | |||
| 24 | h4. Adding/removing releases |
||
| 25 | |||
| 26 | * Adding binary packages for new Debian releases should be done in our OBS, after they are usable via https://build.opensuse.org. |
||
| 27 | * 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. |
||
| 28 | * If we do see build or unit test failures, we should remove the distro from the builds and not invest time in workarounds. |
||
| 29 | |||

||
| 31 | |||
| 32 | h4. Releases |
