Hi Arnout,

It's not clear to me why you did a revert of the cookie feature rather than

Ideally, the correct way would be applying that pending series. But since
there were comments that some of the patches might need reworking [1], I did

I don't see anything in that thread about rework being needed, only some complaints about some mail gateway encrypting messages so they can't be read by some recipients...

not feel confident to add them. Therefore, I tried to keep my solution minimal
and solve it by eliminating the problem. I know, it is not appealing.

The problem with your patch is that it is very difficult to decide if it should be kept or not when bumping the version. Plus, some people (or other packages) may rely on the feature that you remove.

For the time being, I marked this as Changes Requested. If the upstream
patches are not sufficient, please send a mail upstream (as a reply to that
series) explaining the problem (again), and re-send this patch to
Buildroot. If it does fix things, please send a mail upstream to ask to
move the series forward (explaining the issue you have), and send a patch
to Buildroot that adds the needed patches.

They (re)confirmed the issue to me in the past [2] and are aware that its
solution is missing from all the releases onward (see the first point of
"Known bugs" in the release page [3]).
