Looking at Debian’s release-critical bugs, you can see that Trixie is close:
Testing now has fewer critical bugs than Stable, and the number is dropping quickly.
About 200 bugs still need to be fixed to get the number down to where the previous releases were done.
Maybe you can help? Bugs blocking the next release can be as simple as missing translations for the upgrade instructions.
I know, but I can’t enable backports. Same goes for the risks with using the Zabbly and their dependencies.
Ah, sucks :(
I’m looking forward to see where Incus OS goes, or TrueNAS Scale. Honestly, I was very tempted to automate a procedure to take a Proxmox ZFS install and replace the Proxmox bits with Incus bits :) Incus + ZFS as an appliance would be nice. I kinda don’t want to think about the underlying OS.
That will be the end of Proxmox. And I really hope it happens fast.
I dunno, I still have a soft spot for Proxmox. I want ZFS, so it’s about the only game in town with support.
(TrueNAS Scale looks good, but it would increase too much my Hetzner costs, because of their requirement of having a dedicated root pool. And I don’t want an LTS distro that supports root-on-ZFS “oficially”. That narrows the field quite a bit.)
(For work and for my workstations, I’m very pleased with Incus on top of Debian… but that’s because I don’t need ZFS on those.)
