KEA 3.x contains lots of plugins that 2.x lacked, some of which contain very necessary functionality. Maintaining a trixie-backport along with the version 3.x in testing would be tremendously welcome. It builds unmodified and works okay, although Paride mentioned that autopkgtests fail in trixie.
Turns out the autopkgtest failure is not a regression, and depends on the virt server being used. In particular the failure happens when the testbed is an Incus container. This *will* become a problem with debci switching to Incus, but given that this is not a regression, I'm fine uploading the backport.
Ah okay, good to know. Meanwhile, we need to figure out how to best restart it once after the system booted (#1109690 and #1037297) (and once networking is restarted (#1109690)), for which fixes are being worked on sepately; I’d say /etc/rc.local but apparently not under systemd… perhaps an ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 1 (or so) will suffice? But even to just have what’s in testing in trixie will already help. Gruß //Thorsten
