The Debian release team today shared their final release plans for Debian 13 “Trixie” that aims to be out as stable in less than one month’s time.
Debian developers are working to officially release Debian Linux 13.0 on the 9th of August. For that 9 August release to happen, the full freeze of Debian 13 will happen on 27 July.
Debian developers are hoping for a lot of testing to happen between now and then for Debian Trixie, especially in that final week during the freeze period.
The Debian 13.0 release date details can be found on the debian-devel-announce list. Debian 13.0 brings two years worth of changes to this popular Linux distribution with a whole lot of software updates during that time. Debian 13.0 is on Linux 6.12 LTS, features the GNOME 48 desktop, GCC 14.2 compiler, Python 3.13, and many other software updates.
