At the time of this writing OpenSuse distributes version 2.00 of Alpine. The latest version of Alpine (unreleased) was 2.01, which was released by re-alpine and by me a long time ago. After that, re-alpine released two more versions (2.02 and 2.03). Version 2.02 was released on October 2010, while version 2.03 was released December 2012. The list of changes for version 2.02 is * Removed RFCs from the sources and replaced with a link to them * Fixes building on more recent MacOS systems - untested * Fixes folder collection behavior with dual-use mailboxes * Fixes for OpenSSL 1.0+ * Fixes for OpenSSL * Fixes for BSD systems while the list of changes for 2.03 (which is not listed in the source code) is * remove file pico msmem.c * remove code to prevent sending mail message to the University of Washington for first time users. On the other hand, I released version 2.10 of Alpine on January 2013. It can be obtained from http://patches.freeiz.com/alpine/info/alpine.html. It has more than 30 changes between bug fixes and new features. I plan to keep releasing new versions of Alpine in the future. More importantly, the outlook of the future is not very bright for re-alpine. The last release did not add anything, and there does not seem to be an active group of developers working on it. Unfortunately, nothing significant has happened since the creation of the re-alpine project. There is no way to tell what the future will bring, but since my last post in this thread almost 3 years ago, nothing much has changed in re-alpine, while a new release with bug fixes and new features has been released. In my opinion OpenSuse should upgrade, because version 2.00 has bugs that have already been fixed. -- Eduardo -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
