Limitations of support
Not all packages can be supported by our Extended LTS for Debian 10 service:
- packages that have already been marked as unsupported by the Debian security/LTS teams are not supported: see list in git repository
- some packages have limited support: see list in git repository
- linux: we don’t provide security support for Linux 4.19 that was originally provided in Debian 10 Buster. Instead we maintain a backport.
Note that when you request a quote, we send you back a list of packages that are not supported or that have limitations in their support so that you can take an informed decision.
