Greetings,
Will my next apt-get upgrade Koha to 3.12.7? Or to Koha 3.14, if its deb
package becomes available?
If your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list file looks like:
deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha squeeze main
then when a new release comes out you will get the new release. The current
release is 3.14.0, and was released recently, so I would expect an upgrade
to 3.14.0 if you did your upgrade. When 3.14.1 is released, if you upgrade
shortly afterwards, it will jump to 3.14.1. Let's say 4 more months pass
after that. You didn't upgrade to 3.14.2, 3.14.3, 3.14.4, or 3.14.5 (there
is a new maintenance release monthly and rarely an immediate security
update), but having 3.16.0 released (there is a new release cycle roughly
every six months), the upgrade will jump to 3.16.0.
If to Koha 3.12.7, how can I upgrade to Koha 3.14 when my library will be
ready to move?
It would only bump you to 3.12.7 if your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/koha.list
file looks like:
deb http://debian.koha-community.org/koha oldstable main
The advantage of this is you never jump to a 0 release. However, the major
drawback is those features and enhancements you want are likely in the newer
version. And given the quality of releases I have seen with Koha in the
short time I have used it, I don't think the advantage is such a big deal.
GPML,
Mark Tompsett
