Unfortunately, the packaging challenge is only part of the problem with
Rivendell v3.x. on current Debian/Ubuntu. Much larger than that are the issues
with RDBMS (MySQL/MariaDB) compatibility. A big part of doing v4.x was checking
(and in many cases, remediating) every SQL statement in the codebase to ensure
compatibility with current MySQL/MariaDB versions. There are literally hundreds
of such statements in Rivendell.
Cheers!
