Debian people refer to versions of the Debian distribution in a few ways: by nicknames, by numeric versions, and by statuses. The following table summarizes the relationship between these.
Note that status is changing over time, e.g. "Squeeze" is stable since 6th of February 2011.
| Name | Version | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Jessie | 8.0 | testing |
| Wheezy | 7.0 | stable |
| Squeeze | 6.0 | old stable |
| Lenny | 5.0 | old stable |
| Etch | 4.0 | old stable |
| Sarge | 3.1 | old stable |
| Woody | 3.0 | old stable |
| Potato | 2.2 | old stable |
| Slink | 2.1 | old stable |
| Hamm | 2.0 | old stable |
Debian also has a release called "sid" which is permanently unstable, i.e. bleeding edge.
