Debian 11 supports more > architecture than 12 or 13.. If there are architectures in 11 that can't be tested in 12, then from QEMU's POV that is now an untestable feature, since 11 is outside our support target and we don't want to be holding back our support platforms for this. > > > diff --git a/tests/lcitool/refresh b/tests/lcitool/refresh > > > index 6f98a91277..917ff4abfb 100755 > > > --- a/tests/lcitool/refresh > > > +++ b/tests/lcitool/refresh > > > @@ -215,16 +215,6 @@ try: > > > "x86_64-linux-user," > > > > > "i386-softmmu,i386-linux-user")) > > > > > > - generate_dockerfile("debian-mips64el-cross", "debian-12", > > > - cross="mips64el", > > > - trailer=cross_build("mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-", > > > - > > "mips64el-softmmu,mips64el-linux-user")) > > > - > > > - generate_dockerfile("debian-mipsel-cross", "debian-12", > > > - cross="mipsel", > > > - trailer=cross_build("mipsel-linux-gnu-", > > > - > > "mipsel-softmmu,mipsel-linux-user")) > > > - > > > > I'm not seeing the need to remove these, when they could just > > stay on -12, when the next commit updates the other arches > > to -13. > > > > Indeed.. it depends how much we want to keep covering.

Provided one of our current supported platforms has the ability to test it, there should be no change to our testing status of deprecated features. Given that -12 is still a supported platform we should continue to use that, and certainly not replace it with -11 which is an unsupported platform.
