Hi, does anybody know why there is no Debian package for the FreeRADIUS Python module in the networkradius.com Debian repository[0]? We use the Debian packages from networkradius.com and not from Debian itself to have the recent version running. But now we need the Python module and wonder why there's no Debian package there. Moreover the package in Debian itself depends on the version (= not >=) of the freeradius package, so it can't be installed with the newer recent freeradius package version. Does anybody has any hints on this?

While it's in a separate RPM package, the python module is in the main server freeradius DEB package. Historic reasons... it should probably be separated out one day.
Moreover the package in Debian itself depends on the version (= not >=) of the freeradius package, so it can't be installed with the newer recent freeradius package version.
Mixing modules from one version of FreeRADIUS with another is a bad idea, so the dependency is correct. -- Matthew
Hi Matthew, thank you very much, so the problem is solved. :) Best regards Klara On 6/9/22 18:31, Matthew Newton wrote:

Hi Matthew, we just noticed that in the main server freeradius deb package from networkradius.com there is only the Python 2 module. I meant the Python 3 module, of course, as Python 2 support stopped two years ago. Did we overlook something? Best regards Klara On 6/9/22 18:36, Klara Mall wrote:
