    This has some good info.

    The main change with 2.0 is the Debian Sid base, as opposed to Ubuntu.

      Debian Sid? Why not Bookworm?

        The devs laid out their reasoning here:

        Essentially, they want a non-opinionated rolling release and to stick with apt as a base package manager, which means that Sid is the obvious solution.

          Thanks for the explanation. I just didn’t get the apt-part, since Bookworm uses apt too.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
