| After many months of constant development, the Debian project is
proud to present its new stable version 7.0 (code name "Wheezy").
This new version of Debian includes various interesting features such
as multiarch support, several specific tools to deploy private clouds,
an improved installer, and a complete set of multimedia codecs and
front-ends which remove the need for third-party repositories.
Multiarch support, one of the main release goals for "Wheezy", will
allow Debian users to install packages from multiple architectures on
the same machine. This means that you can now, for the first time,
install both 32- and 64-bit software on the same machine and have all
the relevant dependencies correctly resolved, automatically.
The installation process has been greatly improved: Debian can now be
installed using software speech, above all by visually impaired people
who do not use a Braille device. Thanks to the combined efforts of a
huge number of translators, the installation system is available in 73
languages, and more than a dozen of them are available for speech
synthesis too.
In addition, for the first time, Debian supports installation and
booting using UEFI for new 64-bit PCs (amd64), although there is no
support for "Secure Boot" yet. Hot Items | Cart 0 items |
