Debian Fast Forward: An alternative backports repository
- 28 February 2026
The Debian project releases a new stable version of its Linux distribution approximately every two years. During its life time, a stable release usually gets security updates only, but in general no feature updates.
For some packages it is desirable to get feature updates earlier than with the next stable release. Some new packages included in Debian after the initial release of a stable distribution are desirable for stable too.
