=== Stable release === Also called ''production release'', the ''stable release'' is the last ''release candidate'' (''RC'') which has passed all stages of verification and tests. Any known remaining bugs are considered acceptable. This release goes to [[Deployment environment#Production|production]]. Some software products (e.g. [[Linux distribution]]s like [[Debian#Branches|Debian]]) also have ''[[long-term support]]'' (''LTS'') releases which are based on full releases that have already been tried and tested and receive only security updates.{{citation needed|date=November 2024}}
