Re: Linux LTS Version

And ... is there a question?

LTS will often be older than the standard kernel, but this is not a requirement.  So this fact on it's own is not (or should not be) remarkable.

However, in this particular case, our LTS version is different than what is listed on kernel.org.  That may be a mistake.  But that's due to the mismatch to upstream, not a match between LTS and standard kernels.  EDIT: as per the next post, it would seem that perhaps kernel.org's front page has not been updated.
