Bookworm will be released in 2 days time on 10 June. I am waiting until then to finalise the Bookworm URL in my getting-linuxcnc docs. https://github.com/LinuxCNC/linuxcnc/pull/2496 Hopefully, one of you guys can push it soon after. Now there is a buildbot building the Bookworm debs, perhaps we could use that doc to instruct the user (including me) how to configure sources.list to give preference to that version over the Debian package. I don't know how to do that but if one of you guys could tell me how to do it, I'll include it.
I might be wrong but I thought Stefan indicated Debian might be able to be sweet talked into including 2.9 after the release.
