http://forums.debian.net/index.phpFor details on what packages will be available on Debian Buster, and where they stand at this time, you should use one of the mailing lists intended for those using Debian testing, we are just Debian Users here, and have no say as to when or what packages will be available in future versions.Don't blindly follow bad advice
Unfortunately there's a lot of bad advice on the Internet. Tutorials found on blogs, forums and other sites often include instructions that will break your system in subtle ways. Don't simply follow the first advice you find, or the tutorial that seems the easiest. Spend some time reading the documentation and compare the difference between tutorials.
It's better to take the time to figure out the correct way to do something first than spending even more time fixing a broken system later. You would not let some random stranger feed your baby; do not execute commands without first understanding what they do.
Blog and forum posts don't expire. Instructions that might have been safe a couple of years ago might not be safe to follow any more. When in doubt keep researching and read your version's documentation.
No. You just need to first download the two packages I've mentionned from Stretch repo (see link).dfatdf wrote:I presume you need to edit /etc/apt/sources.lst to include it?.
