We only support security updates for binary packages and as I said that requires official Debian hardware and infrastructure. I don't think your project meets our requirements to become an official part of LTS but I assume some LTS users would find it helpful.

Re: LTS Support on Power Architecture
Hi Markus, Thank you for your email. The Power architecture which I mentioned in my email is for ppc64el. If I want to get ppc64el security support, I can work by compiling all the "Bulls Eye" debian packages on ppc64el, I can apply security patches on top of that and I can test the final image on my system which is ppc64el (P9 system). Is my understanding right or do I have to work with Freexian only? Overall I will have to adhere to the standards marked at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DSA https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/FTPMaster Thanks and Regards, Kiruthika. NV

Is my understanding right or do I have to work with Freexian only? Sure you can do that. That would also work for other architectures. You are free to apply our patches and you don't have to work with Freexian for that. Regards, Markus signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
Re: LTS Support on Power Architecture
Hi Markus, If the Debian OS image (Bulls Eye + Security packages) which i built adhere to https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DSA , https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/FTPMaster, can Debian community say ppc64el is LTS supported until 2026 Note: While i build the complete image for PPC64le, if the security patches need rework, i will do and post the patches to Debian community Thanks, NVK
