Linux kernel 6.19 is a short-lived kernel branch, not LTS, which means that it is only supported for a couple of months, and it is now marked as EOL (End of Life) on the kernel.org website. The last update to the Linux 6.19 kernel series was announced today by Greg Kroah-Hartman, who is urging users and distributions to move to the Linux 7.0 kernel.
