https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D254237 --- Comment #3 from David O'Rourke <dor.bsd@xm0.uk> --- (In reply to daniel.engberg.lists from comment #1) > Out of curiosity, what complaints? Freenode is very vocal about irssi 1.3 not being released, saying things li= ke "testing happens in prod, aka freebsd". Generally poking fun in this direct= ion. Meme websites: http://is-irssi1.3-out.today/ Pinned issues: https://github.com/irssi/irssi/issues/1278 I'm guessing we're causing them to get questions about things that they don= 't want to answer, because it's we're not packaging a stable version. Questions in my email are about the differences that irssi 1.3 has, why is there a need to /load perl when that isn't needed elsewhere, why is OTR wei= rd now (maybe it is, I don't use OTR), requests to just downgrade back to 1.2.= 2.=20 Things I'd rather not be wasting my time answering, and which can be avoide= d by just packaging the stable release. There is a patch available for Daniel's concern, it's available at https://github.com/irssi/irssi/pull/1134, I've got a new diff available whi= ch I'll attach shortly which includes this patch. I don't use SSL directly in irssi myself, it's offloaded to a local BNC, so I'm not really able to test this patch. Additionally, I've included a patch for a /quit segfault which can happen depending on module use. > Can't this be taken forward with a fresher upstream import or patches, ra= ther than going backwards?=20 Unfortunately, this probably wouldn't prevent upstream or myself getting questions and comments about FreeBSD using the 1.3 development version. -David --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
