ZFS 2.2.2

[jonaszre]

Hello,

We have Debian servers running Debian Bullseye and we would like to upgrade to Bookworm. In order to obtain ZFS 2.2.2, are there plans to update the ZFS packages?

Thanks!

From https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=zfs-dkms you can see that zfs is currently not part of Debian as it is in contrib section. However, in experimental there is a package with version 2.2.2.

Thanks! Forgive a stupid question, but packages in expermintal can make it into backports for bookworm?

No. They can migrate from "experimental" to "unstable" repository and then to "testing"; see:

• https://wiki.debian.org/DebianExperimental

The 2.2.2 version has been released less than a month ago (Nov 30 2023). It will not make to the current Debian Stable (Bookworm). You can compile it by yourself, anyway.

EDIT: please modify the subject of the first post to make it more informative for other users; for example from:

EDIT 2: moving from "System and network configuration" to "Installation" sub-forum.
