[igalic]

Does Debian 8 NO (ELTS), mean that this OS will be supported longer than we think it will?
cuz we've started removing it from modulesync

[SimonHoenscheid]

@igalic yes! It's documented in the Debian wiki. But, I am not sure what this means for Voxpupuli modules

Debian Releases

[igalic]

judging from the info here, https://wiki.debian.org/LTS/Extended i don't think we can afford to test on an ELTS release, so it feels appropriate to deprecate it as soon as it hits LTS EOL

[SimonHoenscheid]

@igalic removed Debian 8

[avitacco]

Release candidates for PHP 8 are in the Sury repo.
