I have a linuxmint lmde installation and I would like to install MariaDB, a data base system like MySQL. To do this MariaDB asks me which release I have. How can I found out which debian release my linuxmint lmde installation has?
I think the current way of doing this is running lsb_release -r. Also you could do a cat /etc/debian_version which is storing the release on a Debian system.
