Tutorial III: Extra packages to improve Debian 12, MX 23 and more

Last week, we shared the first 2 tutorials of our usual 3 tutorials related to What packages to install after installing Debian GNU/Linux in its latest stable version. What for this occasion is Debian 12 Bookworm. And in them we explore and recommend a list of basic and essential packages to improve any Distro based on "Debian 12, MX-23" and others similar and compatible.

While, as usual, in this third tutorial we will focus on recommending some extra packages mostly focused on those more advanced or expert users in the use of operating systems, such as software developers (applications and packages) and Kernel compilers.

Up to here, we have arrived with the list of extra packages to recommend related to our 3 usual tutorials about what to do after installing Debian/MX, in each new stable version available.

With the caveat again, that these extra packages recommended here will more easily allow anyone to work optimally with little or no Internet when carrying out application development activities or package compilation.

And furthermore, these they do not necessarily have to be installed all at once, that is, together. If not, the ideal or ideal thing would be to learn from each one of them, what they are for and how they can be used, either through online documentation, such as the Debian Manpages, the Debian stable package list, the Debian Wiki or other websites. To then decide if it would really be useful or necessary in the short or long term on your installed Distribution based on Debian 12 Bookworm.

The development of Debian 12 Bookworm has taken 1 year, 9 months and 28 days to complete. And now includes more than 11089 new packages, 43 packages updated and removes 6296 packages, for a final total of 64419 packages. Debian 12 Bookworm Has Been Released: Release Details
