Bug#922618: Any plan to package bird 2.0 as a separate package?

2019-02-18 Thread StarBrilliant
Hello Ondřej,

Thank you for your quick response!

I'm sorry that I only searched on packages.debian.org but forget to
search through any staging area, so I missed your recent great
efforts.

Would you please help me close this issue? I am not familiar with this
bug tracker.

Bug#922618: Any plan to package bird 2.0 as a separate package?

Package: bird
Version: 1.6.5-1
Severity: wishlist

Hello Debian packager!

It has been a year since the release of bird 2.0, which has better
dual-stack integration, better RPKI support, better MPLS support, etc.

However the new version is incompatible to the old branch, similar to
the situation between Qt4 and Qt5. Do you have any plan to package
bird 2.0 as a separate package (e.g. bird2)?


Best regards,

I just checked the sid and experimental repo, still not fixed.

This patch has been submitted for over 2 years, and is actually working.
I recommend merging the patch now.

Benefit for the fix: strongSwan has a certain problem that does not
warn you if you configure ChaCha20Poly1305 with this plugin missing,
but stops working with weird errors if any client tries to negotiate
this cipher, making system administrators puzzled troubleshooting this
problem. By merging the patch can we solve the problem.
