Debian is present at Chemnitzer Linux-Tage 2026, in Chemnitz, Germany, this weekend. Visit our booth! You can also participate in a workshop, Debian Pakete bauen und Fehler beheben, organized by Andreas Tille, the current Debian Project Leader https://chemnitzer.linux-tage.de/2026/en/programm/beitrag/142 #debian #03

I am using Debian Stable, since I rely on my computers for my work (as artist). And you?

Meme, two images and text. 1. Woman lifts up a kid in swimming pool, other kid is drowning. Woman text: Linux users, lifted kid: Debian Stable, drowning kid: Debian Testing. 2. Skeleton at the bottom (of the sea): Debian Unstable.

Der #XMPP Client #profanity ist jetzt mit Version 0.16.0 in #Debian #trixie backports verfügbar.

XMPP ist ein Internet Standard für Instant Messaging.

profanity ist ein console based XMPP Client.

Vielen, vielen Dank and die Entwickler / DDs / DMs 🙏

Viel Spaß beim #chatten.

Took that as a reminder to upload #slidge matridge (the Matrix bridge) 0.3.3 to #Debian. This time with slidge-style-parser!

#Jabber #XMPP

Ich bin seit Ende der 1990er Jahren #Debian-Developer. Seit 2005 (?) bin ich häufig auf den Konferenzen (#DebConf). Diese sind großartig! Aber es ist wie der "#PlanetDerMänner". Statt dem zu erwartenden 50 % Frauenanteil nur 10 %.

D.h. Debian könnte allein durch einen normalen Frauenanteil weit mehr Aktive haben, somit mehr und bessere Packages usw.

Das Anliegen von #SruthiChandran könnte also für das Projekt wichtiger nicht sein!

Debian: Projektleiterwahl 2026 mit nur einer Kandidatin

Finde nur ich das merkwürdig?
Das Hauptanliegen der Bewerberin als Debian Projektleiterin ist #gender #diversity

Wie in jedem Jahr steht im Frühjahr die Wahl des Debian Projektleiters (DPL) an. Andread Tille, der in den vergangenen zwei Jahren das Amt innehatte, tritt nicht mehr an. Bis zum Ablauf der Einreichungsfrist stellte nur eine Kandidatin ihre Bewerbungsplattform online. Sruthi Chandran, eine indische Entwicklerin, stellt sich bereits zum vierten Mal nach 2020, 2021 und 2024 zur Wahl. Ihre Wahlplattform unterscheidet sich nicht maßgeblich von den Vorjahren, ihr Hauptanliegen ist Gender Diversity

In case you're using the official ejabberd packages on Debian stable: They're affected by a recent CA policy change (e.g., Let's Encrypt), causing ejabberd to reject newly issued certificates and thereby breaking federation with some remote servers. Deploy this update to fix the issue:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1128568#23

You may also want to consider enabling mod_s2s_dialback to deal with remote servers that haven't been updated yet.

I ❤️ #Debian.

That is all. Carry on.

I wanted to test Playwright on my Arch Linux, but that software is a pain to install (which is rare on Arch), even with the AUR package. It's built for Debian-based distributions, and installing dependencies is a mess.

I was thinking about using Debian in a chroot, then I remembered the Distrobox project, which uses Podman with deep integration. This was a perfect use case for it, and it works super well. Kudos to the people involved!

#Distrobox #Playwright #Arch #Debian #Podman

Debian thanks all the contributors building and nurturing the FOSS ecosystem and wishes everyone a very happy "I Love Free Software Day" https://fsfe.org/activities/ilovefs/ #debian #ilovefs #02

I use SIP, too — for calls to/from POTS! Both Ekiga and Linphone were pretty good, but got dropped from #Debian 😞 Now I use Twinkle and will try Gnome Calls, again.

TTBOMK, #Monal by @Monal used to have one or the other known issue with A/V calls. Sth. with timing, IIRC? Maybe it's fixed now.

The call for proposals for MiniDebConf Kanpur is open and the deadline is just 10 days away! We are also inviting sponsors to help make the event happen.
