Raw message

Debian is currently freezing for the next release.

A first test with Grase under the new environment turned up these problems:

* *grase-conf-freeradius* depends on *freeradius*, which is not currently 
in debian testing (but it is in debian unstable).
The current version of freeradius in debian stable is 2.2.5 and it works 
with Grase. Can we expect Grase to work with freeradius 3.0.12 (currently 
in unstable)?
* *grase conf-squid3-3.3* depends on *squid3* >= 3.3 << 3.5. The current 
version of squid and squid3 in debian testing is 3.5.22. Can we expect this 
to work?

Basically, the question is whether just bumping the versions of 
dependencies will do for Grase to work with the upcoming version of Debian?

Tim: If you are confident it may work, could you relax the dependencies in 
the nightly builds to test?
Group: Have you tested this and can you share your experience?

Alan
