    The Debian Project https://www.debian.org/ Updated Debian 8: 8.11 released press@debian.org
    June 23rd, 2018 https://www.debian.org/News/2018/20180623 ------------------------------------------------------------------------


    The Debian project is pleased to announce the eleventh (and final)
    update of its oldstable distribution Debian 8 (codename "jessie"). This
    point release mainly adds corrections for security issues, along with a
    few adjustments for serious problems. Security advisories have already
    been published separately and are referenced where available.

    After this point release, Debian's Security and Release Teams will no
    longer be producing updates for Debian 8. Users wishing to continue to
    receive security support should upgrade to Debian 9, or see https://wiki.debian.org/LTS for details about the subset of
    architectures and packages covered by the Long Term Support project.


    The packages for some architectures for DSA 3746, DSA 3944, DSA 3968,
    DSA 4010, DSA 4014, DSA 4061, DSA 4075, DSA 4102, DSA 4155, DSA 4209 and
    DSA 4218 are not included in this point release for technical reasons.
    All other security updates released during the lifetime of "jessie" that
    have not previously been part of a point release are included in this
    update.

    Please note that the point release does not constitute a new version of
    Debian 8 but only updates some of the packages included. There is no
    need to throw away old "jessie" media. After installation, packages can
    be upgraded to the current versions using an up-to-date Debian mirror.

    Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't have
    to update many packages, and most such updates are included in the point release.

    New installation images will be available soon at the regular locations.

    Upgrading an existing installation to this revision can be achieved by
    pointing the package management system at one of Debian's many HTTP
    mirrors. A comprehensive list of mirrors is available at:

    https://www.debian.org/mirror/list
