Hello everyone,

I am writing this to share a concern regarding the Debian MariaDB repos.
Nowadays if you install the latest Debian LTS (trixie/13), the only option
is 11.8, which was released less than 1 year ago!
I do understand that it takes time and space to maintain more than 3
versions but honestly with the new release cycles being closer, we end up
in some ridiculous situation where a user running 11.4 cannot update their
operating system. 11.4 is only two years old, not everyone wants to upgrade
for several reasons. Since the mariadb LTS cycle is 5 years it would make
more sense if a version was packaged for the last Debian LTS which is 5
years as well. I know we can still work around that by running it in Docker
but again, not everyone wants to. Thanks for listening to me.
