Updated Debian 11: 11.11 released
August 31st, 2024
The Debian project is pleased to announce the eleventh and final update
of its oldstable distribution Debian 11 (codename bullseye
).
This point release mainly adds corrections for security issues,
along with a few adjustments for serious problems. Security advisories
have already been published separately and are referenced where available.
Please note that the point release does not constitute a new version of Debian
11 but only updates some of the packages included. There is
no need to throw away old bullseye
media. After installation,
packages can be upgraded to the current versions using an up-to-date Debian
mirror.
Those who frequently install updates from security.debian.org won't have to update many packages, and most such updates are included in the point release.
New installation images will be available soon at the regular locations.
Upgrading an existing installation to this revision can be achieved by pointing the package management system at one of Debian's many HTTP mirrors. A comprehensive list of mirrors is available at:
Secure Boot and other operating systems
Users who boot other operating systems on the same hardware, and who have Secure Boot enabled, should be aware that shim 15.8 (included with Debian 11.11) revokes signatures across older versions of shim in the UEFI firmware. This may leave other operating systems using shim before 15.8 unable to boot.
Affected users can temporarily disable Secure Boot before updating other operating systems.
