Debian 4.0 “etch” is finally released
April 8th, 2007 by jamesWell I woke up this morning (er… afternoon) and saw that hell had finally frozen over.
The Debian Project is pleased to announce the official release of Debian GNU/Linux version 4.0, codenamed etch, after 21 months of constant development.
Updated versions of many programs, including KDE, GNOME, Firefox (Iceweasel), Thunderbird (er… Icedove), and GCC are there. There’s also a new updated installer that will also finally detect all the new hardware the servers we’ve been buying lately have (mainly SATA issues). I’m downloading it now but don’t expect to get a chance to test it until tomorrow.
Check out the full release announcement.
