New Firebird Docker Images
The official firebirdsql/firebird Docker images have just shipped a major overhaul.
- Daily pre-release snapshots: firebirdsql/firebird:6-snapshot and 5-snapshot, rebuilt every 24 hours from the upstream Firebird source branches.
- Debian Trixie (13) is now the default base image; Bookworm, Bullseye, Jammy, and Noble are still available.
- New Firebird patch releases packaged: 5.0.4, 4.0.7, 3.0.14.
- Consistent tag scheme — every image has a - tag so you can pin precisely.
- Cleaner registry — multi-arch images are assembled by digest, so you no longer see -amd64 / -arm64 staging tags on Docker Hub.
