版本说明:
一般有三个版本:stable,testing,unstable
当前的stable是sarge,unstable是sid,testing是etch。
stable
The “stable” distribution contains the latest officially released distribution of Debian.
This is the production release of Debian, the one which we primarily recommend using.
The current “stable” distribution of Debian GNU/Linux is version 3.1r0, codenamed sarge. It was released on June 6th, 2005.
testing
The “testing” distribution contains packages that haven't been accepted into a “stable” release yet, but they are in the queue for that. The main advantage of using this distribution is that it has more recent versions of software.
The current “testing” distribution is etch.
unstable
The “unstable” distribution is where active development of Debian occurs. Generally, this distribution is run by developers and those who like to live on the edge.
The “unstable” distribution is called sid.
stable — 最广泛的用于架设产品化服务器,因为它只包含安全更新。
testing — 推荐工作站用户使用的发行版,因为它包含有最近发布的桌面软件,这些软件已经接受了少量测试。
unstable — 处在悬崖边缘的版本,供 Debian 开发者选用。
