New "refresh" update image for June/July?

[runboy93]

Almost every app on the Raspbian got 1-2 updates (maintenance builds mostly, small fixes) after April image, if you don't believe then check it out by yourself!


4.9.24 (Apr 21) is currently latest kernel for Raspberry Pi, and we feel secure even daily posts about secure problems (BCM, crypmine...), yeah we got rpi-update command but really who want to corrupt their SD card?

And maybe 2017ish update to stock oldie OpenGL Mesa driver (Mesa 17.1.x is working fine, atleast with my testing)

It would be my guess that

Everyone is away on holiday

or

They are putting together something big, as like you say, there have been lot of updates (inc a fairly big kernel change) that could do with rolling up into a release image (and then one a week later to correct the bugs that slip in)

Yeah, maybe holiday like last year "2016-05-27" -> "2016-09-23" which introduced PIXEL.

I don't do this pretty useless post because I'm evil, I just want everyone feel a little more secure with using RPi.

Maybe the Developers feel that an update / dist-upgrade is sufficient to have a Stable Operating System ????

Must be one of the worst posts I've seen so far.

Considering you've asked the same question before in previous months, and that the whole topic of Raspbian releases has been explained before, this whole thread must be one of the most pointless I've ever seen !

@OP, I struggle to understand what point you are trying to make, your first post makes little sense to me.

Don't use rpi-update unless you have a real reason for doing so.

And please avoid personal attacks. First, and only, warning.
