Core Update 136 (testing) report

Hello list,

Core Update 136 (testing, https://blog.ipfire.org/post/ipfire-2-23-core-update-136-is-available-for-testing)
is running here for ~ 20 hours without any known issues so far.

The following parts of IPFire seem to work correctly:
- DDNS
- OpenVPN (RW connections only)
- IPsec (N2N connections only)
- Squid proxy (including authentication and upstream proxy)
- Guardian

Because of several issues, I have not tested Suricata so far,
but will do with Stefans ISO later. Tor starts up correctly and
is able to establish its circuits - there is a strange behaviour
related to some operation mode, which I will investigate further
and report back if it is a bug.

I can confirm the WebUI now shows the correct country for IP
addresses again. Thanks for this, it makes debugging much easier.
However, I still think we need libloc some day... :-)

Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller

Oh yes, the lovely libloc...

Thanks for testing and the feedback though.

I suppose we are leaving this update for testing a little bit longer because the replacement of Perl might cause some rather corner-case problems (see the one that Erik has found).

Best,
