I am learning Ubuntu and I am installing Redis. When I use the following guide, an older version of Redis is installed. 4.0.x

https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-secure-redis-on-ubuntu-18-04

According to redis.io, the latest stable version is 5.0.5. Why does apt install install a 4.0.x version and not the latest 5.0.5 version?

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04.

Thanks!

  • You haven't told us what release you are using, so https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=all&searchon=names&keywords=redis is probably the best we can provide for what you've provided. – guiverc Jun 11 '19 at 01:47

  • I would add apt-cache policy redis to your question, particularly if it's something different to the output of the packages link I've already provided (ie. if it's an older packages than you should get, you have a problem in sources and the apt-cache policy would provide clues such as a bad/out-dated mirror that you should change etc) – guiverc Jun 11 '19 at 01:55
  • 5.0.4 is in Ubuntu 19.04. 5.0.5 is in testing for Ubuntu 19.10. – user535733 Jun 11 '19 at 02:35
