As I write this, kernel.org says 6.14 is the latest kernel release, while security updates have been released in 7.1.3, 6.18.38 and other branches. https://web.archive.org/web/20260704133038/https://kernel.org/ A couple of days ago there was apparently some severe mishap in the service we're being told to pay for and to trust infinitely because they're expected to be so much better than what we have now. https://lwn.net/Articles/1081015/ Even the ETA for the fix seems to have been way off. https://social.kernel.org/notice/B7viUNMy1UsGX9pwHY I'm sorry for their woes, but this doesn't inspire confidence. If such a thing happens to their most important project, and keeps security fixes off their front page for so long, what can we reasonably expect for our packages? -- Alexandre Oliva, happy hacker https://blog.lx.oliva.nom.br/ Free Software Activist FSFLA co-founder GNU Toolchain Engineer Learn the truth about Richard Stallman at https://stallmansupport.org/
