An independent Linux distribution pairing Debian Stable with a customized Budgie desktop and a planned independent APT repository.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-08 issue.

Field notes

Avis Linux combines Debian Stable with a customized Budgie desktop and describes a default installation containing Firefox ESR, LibreOffice, multimedia codecs, and a graphical installer. Its planned package layer is an independent APT repository intended to update desktop components without changing core system libraries. The project lists a September 7, 2026 founding date, but says the initial ISO and public repository are still in final testing, making this a project to revisit rather than a finished distribution to evaluate.
