I know I rely on https://wiki.koha-community.org/wiki/System_requirements_and_recommendations when I give advice about OS support, and I think a lot of new Koha adopters trust it as well. So good to make sure we’re putting out the right information. <br><br> <br><br>David Cook<br><br>Senior Software Engineer<br><br>Prosentient Systems<br><br>Suite 7.03<br><br>6a Glen St<br><br>Milsons Point NSW 2061<br><br>Australia<br><br> <br><br>Office: 02 9212 0899<br><br>Online: 02 8005 0595<br><br> <br><br>From: Tomas Cohen Arazi <tomascohen@gmail.com> <br>Sent: Thursday, 28 July 2022 10:03 AM<br>To: David Cook <dcook@prosentient.com.au><br>Cc: Koha Devel <koha-devel@lists.koha-community.org><br>Subject: Re: [Koha-devel] Debian 9 LTS EOL<br><br> <br><br>On Jenkins, which is what the dashboard pulls that info from, the 18.04 task is run only so stable branches know in advance if backports could break support. I actually removed the 18.04 from the 'Suported' panel for master in Jenkins.<br><br> <br><br>We should discuss actions on this. I think before the 22.05 release we decided to drop support for older distros, but as Mason managed to have all packaging sorted (new Mojolicious, etc) we mistakenly kept the 'support'.<br><br> <br><br> <br><br>El mié, 27 jul 2022 20:35, <dcook@prosentient.com.au <mailto:dcook@prosentient.com.au> > escribió:<br><br>That’s good to know!<br><br> <br><br>Looking at https://dashboard.koha-community.org/, it looks like we still have CI running for Debian 8 and Debian 9 as well as Ubuntu 16 and Ubuntu 18.
