"still at version 7" strongly implies a comparison of the distro version numbers.
- Daviey 10y agoWhich reminds me of 1999 when Slackware jumped from version 4 to 7, purely to keep up with competition.
- JdeBP 10y agoNo, it does not. It implies that one has been at a particular level for some time, whilst the other has only reached its current level recently. chrisper was very clearly not comparing the release numbers, as xe said. One only need read xyr prior comment in this very same thread where xe was talking about outdatedness of what is currently available.
