Hello
It would be nice to have my zabbix_agentd update in this core update too, which I provided at the start of previous week and seems to be requested by a community member (https://community.ipfire.org/t/zabbix-agent-on-stable-release/3636) since October.
And of course as a newbie here I can't wait for my submission to be reviewed/included. But that should of course not be the reason to try to squeeze it in this update. And apart from that, other than the fact that the current version of zabbix_agentd is very old (august 2019), I don't see any sudden urgent reasons to really have this package included in update 156 as it already was not updated for so long.. And I understand, seeing how much patches where submitted here in the meantime, that the priorities currently are not set on some arbitrary addon package like zabbix_agentd. So I guess it can wait for 157.
I also noticed that in the meantime there is a Zabbix Agent v5.0.10 (LTS) available, so I will re-submit my patchset shortly upgrading current 4.2.6 to 5.0.10. And then hopefully have it included in 157? Unless you still see a possibility to have it included in 156? :-)
Regards
Robin

Hello,
I would like to formally close Core Update 156 as soon as possible to merge it into “master” and release it to a wider audience for testing.
Does anyone have any changes that *must* be in this update?
I have the following things on my list:
- Dropping macvtap support: This is broken and I do not think that we
would need this because we have bridges. Please review my proposed patch: https://lists.ipfire.org/pipermail/development/2021-April/009858.html
Jonatan wanted to drop the other templates for the web UI
Peter has some sysctl changes
Apart from that I would like to move our attention to testing this update and collecting patches for the next update. Core Update 156 is already quite large (15 MB compressed on x86_64) and so I would reject any larger changes unless really necessary.
Lots of thanks to Adolf for putting in so many hours to update all these packages that have received so little love in the past. Especially Perl is one of those which take ages and ages :)
Best, -Michael
