Quick inquiry into where to ask or demand for new packages or versions to be included into 42.3? On this list? Example: please upgrade shorewall package (shorewall.net) at least to the one from tumbleweed 5.0.x or better to current stable releases 5.1.x
There is more that I think I have in the back of my mind that I come across every now and then, e.g. more current iptables and related. Then I remember some pretty basic stuff but I cant really remember the details any more, maybe it was core utils maybe something different but basic gnu linux stuff which had been old in contrast to what I found at the official source back then. Sorry to annoy.
Quoting myself:
42.3 continues the 42 line of Leap and is meant to be a small service pack alike refresh. We need a smooth upgrade without surprises from 42.2 to 42.3. With that in mind I'd like to remind package maintainers that we don't have to and can not offer the latest and greatest of everything.
So if you think a package is safe to upgrade but wasn't yet, then please get in contact with the package maintainer(s).

Seems my message get flooded :-) Ludwig as Leap Leader, I've this question. For shorewall 4.6.13.4 is the last stable of 4x series (but it doesn't receive any fixes from upstream right now). There in between a 5.0 and now the new 5.1x version. Moving from 4 to 5 works (tested hopefully, at least in my usecases), but a migration of configuration is needed by admin (it is somewhat automated shorewall -a ... do most of the jobs, but a review by the firewall admin is mandatory (at least this is the advise I apply to myself). I will in few hours get the new 5.1.3 in netfilter repo. And of course I can push that to Leap (I use both of them). My question is : upgrading to such new version isn't against Leap spirit ? -- Bruno Friedmann Ioda-Net Sàrl www.ioda-net.ch Bareos Partner, openSUSE Member, fsfe fellowship GPG KEY : D5C9B751C4653227 irc: tigerfoot -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
