In the upcoming ThinLinc 4.19.0, scheduled for release this summer, both the server and Linux client will have increased operating system requirements¹. In practice, this means that ThinLinc will no longer work on several end-of-life distributions, most notably:

- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
- Debian 9
- Ubuntu 18.04
- SUSE Linux Enterprise 12

We therefore urge everyone still on these end-of-life distributions to upgrade their systems to be able to upgrade to ThinLinc 4.19.0 on release.

¹ The minimum required `glibc` version will be raised from 2.12 to 2.28.
