NOTE: An exception to this deprecation policy is when we are unable to provide packages for the next version of the operating system. The most common reason for this our package repository provider, Packagecloud, not supporting newer versions and hence we can't upload packages to it.
Update GitLab package sources after upgrading the OS
After upgrading the Operating System (OS) as per its own documentation, it may be necessary to also update the GitLab package source URL in your package manager configuration. If your package manager reports that no further updates are available, although new versions have been released, repeat the "Add the GitLab package repository" instructions of the Linux package install guide. Future GitLab upgrades will now be fetched according to your upgraded OS.
Supported Operating Systems
GitLab officially supports LTS versions of operating systems. While OSs like Ubuntu have a clear distinction between LTS and non-LTS versions, there are other OSs, openSUSE for example, that don't follow the LTS concept. Hence to avoid confusion, the official policy is that at any point of time, all the operating systems supported by GitLab are listed in the installation page.
The following lists the currently supported OSs and their possible EOL dates.
