What is YunoHost?

YunoHost 13.0.10 continues the 13.0 point releases, with notes left to Debian.

YunoHost is a self-hosting distribution built on Debian. Its feed lists point releases on two lines, 12.1.x and 13.0.x; 13.0.10 arrived on November 13, about three weeks after 13.0.9. Every entry says only to refer to the Debian changelog, so the feed carries no detail on what changed.

What is KrakenD?

The two tracked KrakenD releases are patch releases of the community edition. 2.13.10 in August moved to Go 1.26.7, and 2.13.11 in September bumped the gRPC and RabbitMQ client libraries.

5.0

YunoHost 13.0.10 continues the 13.0 point releases, with notes left to Debian.

◆ Current state

YunoHost is a self-hosting distribution built on Debian. Its feed lists point releases on two lines, 12.1.x and 13.0.x; 13.0.10 arrived on November 13, about three weeks after 13.0.9. Every entry says only to refer to the Debian changelog, so the feed carries no detail on what changed.

◆ Where it's heading

The 13.0 line gets a point release every few weeks while 12.1 receives occasional hotfixes. Without notes, the feed shows cadence but not content.

◆ Prediction

Expect another 13.0 point release within a month; the entries give no sign of a 13.1 or of 12.1 ending.

◆ Where it's heading

The open-source gateway is in maintenance mode in this feed, kept current on Go and dependencies. Two entries are too few to say where the product is heading.

◆ Prediction

Unclear from these entries; more dependency patch releases are the only pattern visible.
