Re: Is Firefox ESR Updated to a New Version in Debian Testin

If we extrapolate from history, it will be many months before this transition happens. And it will most likely come to Stable before it comes to testing. In the previous transitions, that is the earlier migrations of the new major versions of the ESR, it has happened nearly half a year after the pu...

Re: Preparing upgrade to buster

It is not recommended to use aptitude to upgrade between releases for exactly that reason — the dependency resolution algorithm gets confused because it has too many choices. The official guides recommend to use # apt update # apt upgrade # apt full-upgrade It depends on how one wants to handle a r...

Re: Is Firefox ESR Updated to a New Version in Debian Testin

68.11 is also a current ESR version — Mozilla supply both [0] and it looks like Debian are sticking with 68.x until it's no longer available. I know that ESR 68 is still supported, we are in a transition period. What I do not understand is why ESR 78 has not reached Testing yet. It has been a month...

Is Firefox ESR Updated to a New Version in Debian Testing?

I reinstalled Testing about a month ago. And this is my first time using Firefox ESR, ever. I used to grab the latest version from Unstable, and before that, I got the latest one from the Debian Mozilla repository. I read that Firefox latest ESR version is 78, which was published about a month ago. ...

Re: ThinkPad TrackPoint buttons stopped working after update

I am sorry, I meant to say that you should try downgrading them (old versions are available in Snapshot Debian .) You would have to simulate it first, for they are dependencies of numerous packages, which may demand this particular version (unlikely, but possible.) Note that it may not be the soluti...
