Nous sommes heureux d'annoncer la disponibilité de Debian 7.0(notes de version) et Ubuntu 13.04(notes de version) pour le déploiement dans le Linode Manager dans les versions 32 et 64 bits. Vous pouvez consulter notre documentation dans la bibliothèque Linode si vous n'êtes pas sûr de savoir comment déployer une distribution Linux dans le Linode Manager.
Debian 7.0 (Wheezy) sera supporté un an après la prochaine version majeure de Debian . Le projet Debian fonctionne actuellement sur un cycle de publication de deux ans, la date de fin de vie est donc estimée à 2016. La version 13.04 de Ubuntu (Raring Ringtail) sera prise en charge par Canonical jusqu'en janvier 2014. Si vous avez besoin d'une version de Ubuntu avec une durée de support plus longue, vous pouvez déployer Ubuntu 12.04 LTS qui bénéficie d'un support jusqu'en avril 2017.
En plus de ces nouvelles distributions, nous avons mis à jour nos images Debian 6 et Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. L'image Debian 6 comprend des paquets système mis à jour et la suppression de nfs-common et portmap. L'image Ubuntu 12.04 LTS a été mise à jour vers Ubuntu 12.04.2 qui inclut un correctif pour le bogue mentionné dans notre annonce de disponibilité en plus de la suppression du paquet whoopsie.
Santé !

Thanks for the good work guys 🙂 Looking forward to this.
Thanks for the news. Is there an easy way to update currently used Ubuntu LTS 12.04 to match your update image? Would apt-get update take care of this? Or do I have to reinstall it using your image?
Yup, the following will get you from 12.04 to 12.04.2…
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get remove whoopsie
sudo apt-get upgrade
An LTS release of Ubuntu will only update to another LTS release. So if you’re on 12.04 LTS, it won’t auto-update to 13.04. You’ll need to wait for 14.04 LTS.
@Mohamed^^
apt-get update and apt-get upgrade should be enough 🙂
The same question, but for Debian: is there a way to upgrade a debian6-x64 based node without creating a new system disk?
@Raffaele: you can change ‘squeeze’ to ‘wheezy’ in /etc/apt/sources.list and then run apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade.
I don’t see the point why apt-get dist-upgrade with Debian is impossible per se.
Thanks guys, our fleet will rock Debian 7.0 pretty soon!
Raffaele: You can simply follow the upgrade procedures from the documentation.
Very nice, I will create a new instance of wheezy
: D
…and what about ext4? If I’m not mistaken, this is the new default file system for debian7, isn’t it?
Are you planning the support for ext4 too?
Thanks for the upgrade. Now I am using Ubuntu 13.04. 🙂
I have successfully upgraded my box to Wheezy from Squeeze with “apt-get”. See this Linode document for the reference
https://library.linode.com/upgrading/upgrade-to-debian-7-wheezy
If you have 3rd party repositories, just be aware when updating that these repo’s might not yet have Ubuntu 13.04 packages.
So double check.
@geoff “do-release-upgrade -d” will upgrade an LTS to the next non-LTS release.
@Feng: it’s not impossible per se. It’s just that Linode’s default sources.list file explicitly names the version (“squeeze”) rather than using “stable”. That effectively pins the system to that version of Debian rather than having it float to the current stable version. If you use “stable” in sources.list instead of “squeeze” or “wheezy”, dist-upgrade will automatically upgrade when the stable release changes.
Downside: if you happen to have out-of-date packages when the version switch occurs, things can go wonky in a hurry. You won’t know exactly when the switch will happen, so it’s easy to get caught by it. That’s probably why the Linode default is “you won’t get it until you ask for it”.
Nice and thanks for the upgrade.
This is a great news!
@Feng: thanks for the link, it’s very helpful.
