Debian 4 Released
Debian is one of the major Linux distributions available today. With some recent changes in the Debian leadership with Sam Hocevar getting elected as its leader, version 4, code-named "Etch", has officially been released. Some updated packages included in this release are:


  • GNOME 2.14 desktop
  • KDE 3.5.5a desktop
  • Xfce 4.4 desktop
  • GNUstep 5.2 desktop
  • X.Org 7.1
  • OpenOffice.org 2.0.4a
  • gimplinks 2.2.13
  • Iceweasel (an unbranded version of Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.3)
  • Icedove (an unbranded version of Mozilla Thunderbird 1.5)
  • Iceape (an unbranded version of Mozilla Seamonkey 1.0.8)
  • PostgreSQL 8.1.8
  • MySQL 5.0.32
  • GCC (GNU Compiler Collection) 4.1.1
  • Linux kernel version 2.6.18
  • Apache 2.2.3
  • Samba 3.0.24
  • Python 2.4.4 and 2.5
  • Perl 5.8.8
  • PHP 4.4.4 and 5.2.0
  • Asterisk 1.2.13


If you are using one of the Debian-based distributions such as Linspire/Freespire, Knoppix and Ubuntu, I recommend that you wait for the update. It is inevitable.

One comment, though, I wish that it included kernel 2.6.20 - with virtualization. :)
