PHP and Samba have also been updated, reaching version 7 and 4.5 respectively. DNS and host packets have also been updated. From this release, Debian abandons Mysql to choose MariaDB, pointing all MySQL packages to MariaDB as a database. It is on the server side that it looks like Debian Stretch has changed more. Firefox 52 will be present in the distribution, as well as other web browsers we usually find. Regarding desktops, this new version of Debian has Plasma 5.8, Xfce 4.12, Gnome 3.22, MATE 1.16 or LXQT 0.11.Īs for regular programs, Debian Stretch contains version 5.2 of LibreOffice and version 2.9 of Calligra. However, if we are experts, we can install any version of the kernel that we want. That is an older version but more tested than the 4.11 kernel. At the kernel level, Debian 9 Stretch does not have the latest version of the Linus kernel but has version 4.9. And adds the option for the mips64el platform. At the platform level, Debian 9 leaves the PowerPC platform. However today we are going to tell you everything new that brings this new version of the most famous “mother distribution” of all time. A few days ago we told you how to move from Debian 8 Jessie to Debian 9 Stretch.
