As all good things must come to an end, the Parsix GNU/Linux development team has published a brief announcement on the distro’s homepage to inform users that the project is going to shut down later this year, specifically about six months after the release of Debian GNU/Linux 9 “Stretch.” Parsix GNU/Linux always used the software repositories of the current stable Debian GNU/Linux release, providing users with security updates even after a certain Parsix GNU/Linux release reached end of life and was no longer supported. At the moment, the current stable release is Parsix GNU/Linux 8.15r1 “Nev.”
