Bug#1039928: ifupdown2: set-fec encoding auto not supported

2023-06-29 Thread Joe Botha
Package: ifupdown2
Version: 3.0.0-1.1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

Dear Maintainer,

When using the latest ifupdown2 in Debian I get this error on an Nvidia SN2010 
switch:

ifreload -a
error: swp4: cmd '/sbin/ethtool --set-fec swp4 encoding auto' failed: returned 
83 (netlink error: Operation not supported)

It seems this attempts to set Forward Error Correction to Auto.

ifupdown2 version 3.0.0-1.1
ethtool version 6.1 

The Spectrum (mlxsw) driver does not support --set-fec encoding auto

I can make the error go away by commenting this line:

/usr/share/ifupdown2/addons/ethtool.py

if feccmd:
   try:
   feccmd = ('%s --set-fec %s %s' %
  (utils.ethtool_cmd, ifaceobj.name, feccmd))
   #utils.exec_command(feccmd)

I asked the mlxsw developers and they responded with:

"The problem needs to be solved in ifupdown2, which should not assume that 
every net device
implements these optional operations."

Bug#1005862: apt: Feature request - apt-get Source IP

2022-02-16 Thread Joe Botha
Hi

I figured out a temporary workaround using ‘ip netns exec’

It works, but things like apticron will still fail.

2022-02-16 Thread Joe Botha
Hi

Yes, sorry, should maybe have had title with Source _IP_address_

I think you should be able to specify a source IP when opening the tcp socket.

Would probably need to add some code for IPv4 and IPv6 cases.

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

I use Debian on a server with multiple upstream internet links. Some of these 
links have peering point IPs.

It happens fairly often that apt-get traffic uses the source IP in a peering 
point range and then downloads fail.

Please consider adding a feature so I can configure apt-get to specify a source 
IP or interface on the server.

For example: traceroute has a -s option: "Chooses  an alternative source 
address."

Bug#958529: RFP: routinator -- Routinator 3000 is RPKI Relying Party software

2020-04-23 Thread Joe Botha
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name: routinator
  Version : 0.6.4
  Upstream Author : Name 
* URL : https://www.nlnetlabs.nl/projects/rpki/routinator/
* License : BSD
  Programming Lang: Rust
  Description : Routinator 3000 is free, open source RPKI Relying Party 
software

Routinator 3000 is RPKI Relying Party software, also known as an RPKI 
Validator. It is designed to have a small footprint and great portability.

Routinator 3000 connects to the Trust Anchors of the five Regional Internet 
Registries (RIRs) — APNIC, AFRINIC, ARIN, LACNIC and RIPE NCC — downloads all 
of the certificates and ROAs in the various repositories and validates the 
signatures. It can feed the validated information to hardware routers 
supporting Route Origin Validation such as Juniper, Cisco and Nokia, as well as 
serving software solutions like BIRD, OpenBGPD, GoBGP and VyOS. Alternatively, 
Routinator can output the validated data in a number of useful formats, such as 
CSV, JSON and RPSL.



Bug#887051: RFP: openr -- Open/R extensible network routing platform Package: wnpp

2018-01-12 Thread Joe Botha
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name : openr
* Upstream Author : Facebook
* URL : https://github.com/facebook/openr
* License : MIT
* Programming Lang: C++, Python
* Description : Open/R extensible network routing platform

OpenR is Facebook's internally designed and developed
routing protocol/platform. Originally built for performing
routing on the Terragraph network, its awesome design and
flexibility have led to its adoption in other networks at
Facebook including our new WAN network, Express Backbone.

OpenR is a free, open and extensible routing
protocol/platform which provides features similar to OSPF
and IS-IS. Any network with Linux based routers could
benefit from this project.



Bug#523978: gqview: upgrade to v2.1.5

Hi!

Please upgrade this package.

2.1.5 seems to support the CR2 (Canon RAW) format and I need that.
