Debian GNU/Hurd 2013 released

[Distributions] Posted May 22, 2013 2:36 UTC (Wed) by jake

While it is not an official Debian release, the Debian GNU/Hurd team has announced the release of Debian GNU/Hurd 2013. GNU Hurd is a Unix-style kernel based on the Mach microkernel and Debian GNU/Hurd makes much of the Debian system available atop that kernel.

Debian GNU/Hurd is currently available for the i386 architecture with more than 10.000 software packages available (more than 75% of the Debian archive, and more to come!).

Please make sure to read the configuration information, the FAQ, and the translator primer to get a grasp of the great features of GNU/Hurd.

Due to the very small number of developers, our progress of the project has not been as fast as other successful operating systems, but we believe to have reached a very decent state, even with our limited resources.
