Upcoming Debian “wheezy” software upgrades
Update October 14: This process described below is complete. All the updates were installed, and we’re now using only Debian wheezy on all servers.
Over the last year, we’ve been slowly upgrading our servers from Debian Linux version 6 (codename “squeeze”) to version 7 (codename “wheezy”).
All the “prominent” software (such as the Apache Web server, MySQL, PHP, the Linux kernel, and so on) was updated months ago, one piece at a time, usually with individual announcements here on our blog. Any software with security or compatibility issues has also already been upgraded.
What’s left at the end of that process are many “minor” packages, each probably used by less than 1% of our customers. We’ll be upgrading the rest of these over the next 30 days.
We don’t expect most customers to notice any change at all, or to bother reading the detailed list of changes below. We’re posting this mainly so that if people do notice anything, and they search our site for the name of the software they use, they’ll see that it was recently upgraded (and can contact us if they have any questions about it).
Here’s the list of packages that will be upgraded:

Customers can choose the PHP series (the “major version” of PHP, such as 5.3, 5.4 or 5.5) in our control panel. We automatically apply updates to that series (as in this example); you don’t need to do anything to get those updates.
If you’re asking which series to use: for new customers, the series defaults to 5.5, and that’s what we use ourselves. That’s the best-performing, most bug-free version. However, we aren’t (yet) forcing customers using 5.3 or 5.4 to upgrade if they need an older version for compatibility.
>Is the Debian version being installed version 7.6?
Yes, that’s the current version as of this writing. But we use whatever version is current at the time each package is deployed — if they release 7.7 tomorrow, for example, we’d use that one.
