Hi,
As far as I have understood, there are two sorts of Debian packages for LedgerSMB :
- Debian regular repositories just contain packages called « ledgersmb » ;
Yes, that's the official Debian package for the LedgerSMB application (which also migrates over to the developmental version of Ubuntu). The most recent is the one for the most recently released version of LedgerSMB, 1.6.9. (Released just a few days ago.)
- your repository apt.ledgersmb.org contains packages with names like
« ledgersmb-1.5 » and « ledgersmb-1.5-apache ».
Yes, the ledgersmb-1.5 packages are for the 1.5.x versions of LedgerSMB, with the latest being v1.5.24 (just released a few days ago). The ones like ledgersmb-1.5-apache are for web proxies if one wants to use one. The 1.5.x versions will be supported by the project until December of this year (2019) when it will see its End Of Life for community support.. There are also the ledgersmb-1.6 packages, which are for the 1.6.x versions of the LedgerSMB application (the current stable). It also has the associated packages for a web proxy selection.
So, I feel a bit lost... Is there one preferred sort of package ? Are some of these obsolete ?
The ledgersmb-1.5 packages aren't "obsolete" but they are for the old-stable version of LedgerSMB (1.5.x), which as noted will see End of Life in December 2019. (Whereas the 1.6.x versions are good for LedgerSMB Community Support until December of 2021.) Their advantage is that due to the availability of dependencies, the ledgersmb-1.5 packages can be backported to older versions of Debian (or Ubuntu) than the ledgersmb-1.6 packages currently can be.
The primary difference between the 'ledgersmb' package and the 'ledgersmb-1.x' packages is that due to Debian Policy (regarding embedded libraries), the ledgersmb packages uses the system installed packages for the Dojo libraries while the ledgersmb-1.x packages use the embedded versions of the Dojo libraries that are released with each version of the LedgerSMB application.
