This isn't true. It does, but are supported for 3 years, not 5. > - Ubuntu server doesn't have development packages: compilers, > libraries, etc that I need to install snort. It does. http://people.ubuntu.com/~ubuntu-archive/germinate-output/dapper/server Supported for 5 years. > With Ubuntu server I can only setup LAMP or mail servers with a 5 > years support.

True, not all of them are supported for 5 years, but Ubuntu is still a young distribution.

I think it is and I use it in enterprise env - in envs where RedHat provided worse results than Debian and Ubuntu with packages provided from ISV for RedHat (with paid support from vendor). Again, lots of contradiction in your posts. I understand that you are not happy with the fact that some apps you need aren't supported for 5 years (just for information, this doesn't mean they are unsupported), but then you talk about compiling some programs - this means no support but your self - how much is this different from ubuntu packages that don't have 5 year support? We were discussing about making possible to get information about only 5 year supported packages and you have a point when you say you can't tell for sure which packages are supported 5 years. Hopefully, this would get solved for next LTS. -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server
