Hello *,
better late than never, some testing feedback on Core Update 182: Having upgraded to "master/7270984c", all IPFire features tested (complete list below) work fine. This particularly applied to Squid 6.6, which was occasionally crashing with the following message before (version 6.5):
2023/12/20 13:41:36 kid1| FATAL: assertion failed: peer_digest.cc:399: "fetch->pd && receivedData.data"
This problem did not occur on any IPFire installations running Core Update 181, and the combination of Squid 6.6 and potentially having shipped changed libgcc_s.so.1 appears to have resolved whatever the underlying root cause was.
During the upgrade, I noticed the following warning emitted by dracut:
dracut: Skipping program /bin/loginctl using in udev rule 71-seat.rules as it cannot be found
It does not appear to have a functional impact on Core Update 182 though.
Tested IPFire functionalities in detail: - PPPoE dial-up via a DSL connection - IPsec (N2N connections only) - Squid (authentication enabled, using an upstream proxy) - OpenVPN (RW connections only) - IPS/Suricata (with Emerging Threats community ruleset enabled) - Guardian - Quality of Service - DNS (using DNS over TLS and strict QNAME minimization) - Dynamic DNS - Tor (relay mode)
I am looking forward to the release of this Core Update. My apologies for the library deletion and ALSA firmware quirks initially introduced by me in Core Update 182, and thanks to Arne for fixing both.
Merry Christmas, if you celebrate. Enjoy the holiday, if not.
Thanks, and best regards, Peter Müller
