I just opened this report against radiusclient-ng in Debian (see below), can anybody else comment on the situation, in particular, for compatibility? Is there any urgency for Debian to update to the new client code? I think the wiki page referenced below is not up to date, it refers to a CVS repository but it appears that the client code is not in github Also, is anybody aware of C++ wrappers for this code or a C++ alternative? -------- Original Message -------- Subject: radiusclient-ng in Debian Date: Mon, 15 Jul 2013 14:41:54 +0200 From: Daniel Pocock <daniel@pocock.com.au> To: Debian Bug Tracking System <submit@bugs.debian.org> Package: libradiusclient-ng2 Version: 0.5.6-1.1 Severity: normal I've just read through the wiki at: http://wiki.freeradius.org/glossary/Radiusclient If I understand correctly, a) freeradius-client is the continuation of radiusclient-ng (which was the continuation of a previous project) b) it is not a fork of the previous projects c) it should be compatible (or almost compatible) with code that was built for radiusclient-ng d) it is NOT built from the main FreeRADIUS source tree or repository, it is built from a standalone repository Therefore, this leaves me feeling that Debian should drop the libradiusclient-ng2 package and distribute FreeRADIUS client instead and there will be no significant side-effects of doing so.
