Debian LTS: DLA-2324-1: linux-latest-4.19 new package
Summary
-------------------------------------------------------------------------Debian LTS Advisory DLA-2324-1 debian-lts@lists.debian.org https://www.debian.org/lts/security/ August 12, 2020 https://wiki.debian.org/LTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------Package : linux-latest-4.19 Version : 105+deb10u5~deb9u1 Linux 4.19 has been packaged for Debian 9 as linux-4.19. This provides a supported upgrade path for systems that currently use kernel packages from the "stretch-backports" suite. However, "apt full-upgrade" will *not* automatically install the updated kernel packages. You should explicitly install one of the following metapackages first, as appropriate for your system: linux-image-4.19-686 linux-image-4.19-686-pae linux-image-4.19-amd64 linux-image-4.19-arm64 linux-image-4.19-armmp linux-image-4.19-armmp-lpae linux-image-4.19-cloud-amd64 linux-image-4.19-marvell linux-image-4.19-rpi linux-image-4.19-rt-686-pae linux-image-4.19-rt-amd64 linux-image-4.19-rt-arm64 linux-image-4.19-rt-armmp For example, if the command "uname -r" currently shows "4.19.0-0.bpo.9-amd64", you should install linux-image-4.19-amd64. There is no need to upgrade systems using Linux 4.9, as that kernel version will also continue to be supported in the LTS period.
