5# Compile on an old version of Linux that has barely the minimal build
6# requirements for CMake. This tests that curl is still usable on really
7# outdated systems.
8#
9# Debian stretch is chosen as it closely matches some of the oldest major
10# versions we support (especially cmake); see docs/INTERNALS.md and it
11# is still supported (as of this writing).
12# stretch has ELTS support from Feexian until 2027-06-30
13# For ELTS info see https://www.freexian.com/lts/extended/docs/how-to-use-extended-lts/
14# The Debian key will expire 2025-05-20, after which package signature
15# verification may need to be disabled.
16# httrack is one of the smallest downloaders, needed to bootstrap ELTS,
17# and won't conflict with the curl we're building.
