Dear all,
May be off topic. I am trying to understand why Debian (especially stable)
has the reputation as being more conservative than other distributions. If
I look at distrowatch (for example comparing to openSUSE and Fedora):
Kernel LibreOffice Release date
Bookworm 6.1.27 7.4.5 2023-06-10
Trixie 6.6.15 24.2.0 2023-06-11
Leap 15.5 5.14.21 7.4.3.2 2023-06-07
Tumbleweed 6.7.9 24.2.1 2024-03-17
Fedora 6.5.6 7.6.2 2023-11-07
I don't know much about the meaning of kernel versions, but I know that
major versions are often developed in parallel. Is 5.14.21 newer than
6.1.27? Judging alone from the kernel version numbers (and other
packages), it looks like Leap would be the most conservative while Debian
Testing (Trixie) almost as up-to-date (concerning newer Linux packages) as
Tumbleweed and ahead of Fedora (released later).
Thanks,
Gianluca
