Hello,

Yesterday my hosting provider did some security updates and Jenkins v2 got installed.
Apparently The LTS repository for ubuntu contains Jenkins v2.7 since yesterday.
But the website is still stating v1.651 as the LTS version.

I don't think this is a distaster (for me), but Jenkins is now complaining that I should install an update to v2.12, which is definitely not a LTS version.

Anybody else noticed this?  Which one is the latest LTS version?


Best regards,
Tom Lambert

We have noticed this and discovered that yesterday was scheduled to be the first 2.x LTS release according to https://jenkins.io/content/event-calendar/

It looks like this may have happened prematurely because the website was not updated and there has been no announcement. I'm certainly curious about what happened!

As far as I can tell from checking the "stable" directories of http://mirrors.jenkins.io/ , Jenkins 2.7.1 LTS has released on all platforms.  Don't know about the documentation update, but the code is available.  I've updated Docker instances and my main server successfully.

Looks like Oliver forgot to update the changelog. I'm working on this right now, the site will be updated later today.

2.7.1 is the latest LTS, released yesterday. Ignore the available update.

Due to a quirk in the update site generation, we need to wait for the release to be available before we can create an update site for that specific version (which does not offer the latest weekly for download). That's in progress:
