Hello list,
above all, apologies for being rather quiet recently. Yes, you guessed it, this is due to ${dayjob} and non-IPFire-related todo lists, ever-growing as they are. :-/
Since we currently have plenty of space left for upcoming Core Update 172, it would be great if someone could take care of the following packages, which all seem to be in need of an update: - bird - curl - dehydrated - expat - fcron - libedit - libpng - libxml2 ? - libvirt - ncat - nginx - nmap - OpenSSL - sudo - zlib
Please ensure to update the date in the copyright header, to make it more obvious which LFS files have already collected some dust and which have not. :-) As always, your packaging efforts and sniffing for updates is highly appreciated - many, many thanks.
On that note, I screwed up the update of strongSwan 5.9.8, which I will take care of in due course. Right now, the only thing scheduled for Core Update 172 on my end is to replace the custom generation of Diffie-Hellman parameters in OpenVPN with those recommended by RFC 7919.
Thank you in advance, and best regards, Peter Müller

Welcome back.
Since we currently have plenty of space left for upcoming Core Update 172, it would be great if someone could take care of the following packages, which all seem to be in need of an update:
I have been away visiting family so not been able to do any package update work but I am now back home.
I already have zlib, libxml2, expat on my list to work on so I will have a look at those and the others.
- bird
- curl
- dehydrated
- expat
- fcron
- libedit
- libpng
- libxml2 ?
- libvirt
- ncat
- nginx
- nmap
- OpenSSL
- sudo
- zlib
Please ensure to update the date in the copyright header, to make it more obvious which LFS files have already collected some dust and which have not. :-) As always, your packaging efforts and sniffing for updates is highly appreciated - many, many thanks.
Previously I had asked about updating that header but Michael had replied not to bother with it. If it should be done then I will have a look mat it in future but could you or Michael confirm that it should be updated if the end year is earlier than the current year?
On that note, I screwed up the update of strongSwan 5.9.8, which I will take care of in due course. Right now, the only thing scheduled for Core Update 172 on my end is to replace the custom generation of Diffie-Hellman parameters in OpenVPN with those recommended by RFC 7919.
I have also been working on the python3 update before my family visit but had some problems and waiting for feedback on a mail of mine. Will raise it at the conf call this evening.
Regards,
Adolf.
Thank you in advance, and best regards, Peter Müller
Hello *,
to add some packages to the initially posted list: - bash - libassuan - libpipeline - libuv - libxcrypt - OpenVPN - pcmciautils - qemu & qemu-ga - readline - sed - swig - usbutils - xz
I am happy to take care of some of them, should the contributors typically doing package updates (Adolf and Matthias) experience capacity issues. Just drop me a line. :-)
As for Core Update 172, it will be kept open until November 23, to await the outcome of Mozilla's ultimate to TrustCor Systems (and to pick up changes to their root CA store as quickly as possible).
Thanks, and best regards, Peter Müller

Hi Peter,
I have done update patches for most of the packages listed below. One I had problems with was pcmciautils as I could not find a location for the source tarball. I tried my usual trick to see where Arch Linux gets it from but they no longer have pcmciautils as a package in the standard repos or the AUR , so it is no longer available anywhere on Arch Linux.
Do you have any info on where I can get the source tarball from?
Regards,
Adolf.

Hi Peter,
In your original list you had nmap. This can't be updated as the latest version 7.93 requires to be built with openssl-3.0.5, so the update will have to wait a while.
Regards,
Adolf.

Hi Peter et al,
In the first list you mentioned an update for fcron.
The current version of fcron in IPFire is 3.2.1 which is the most up to date version from the Stable branch.
There are versions 3.3.0 from Aug 2016 and 3.3.1 from Dec 2021 which are part of the Development branch.
I would just like to have it confirmed that it is the latest Dev Branch version (3.3.1) that is being looked at for the update.
Regards,
Adolf.

Hello Adolf,
I think we should remain on the stable branch.
Not being sure what the changes are, I cannot imagine that we would need anything that is bleeding edge and fcron works just fine for us at the moment.
Best, -Michael
