A survey to understand which architectures / processors are in priority.

As a result, there will be builds only for the most used architectures.

Decision is made:

  • Supported architectures remain: x86, x64, armHF, arm64
  • For arm64 architecture after 2022-01, the assembly will be for the RaspberryPi 4B processor (Cortex-A72)

Some packages are not building without errors anymore for Debian 7.

Official support discontinued too.

Plus I already not using this release for my projects, servers and virt.machines.

So should I continue build packages for that release? Or it's time to cleanup archive and not waste time for builds?

Decision is made:

  • Debian 7 support will end on 2022-01-01
  • packages will be removed after 2022-05-01
  • everyone is better off moving to Debian 10+
