+ <h2>What is Debian Sid?</h2>
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+<blockquote>Debian Unstable (also known by its codename "Sid") is not strictly a release, but rather a rolling development version of the Debian distribution containing the latest packages that have been introduced into Debian. As with all Debian release names, Sid takes its name from a Toy Story character. In the movie, Sid is the kid next door who breaks his toys and makes nasty creatures of them.<i> - <a href="https://wiki.debian.org/DebianUnstable" target="_blank">https://wiki.debian.org/DebianUnstable</a></i></blockquote>
