I am pleased to announce secnet 0.3.3~beta1.
0.3.3 contains a bugfix relevant on sites with the now-conventional
`ipaddr.py' Python module (as found in Debian's python-ipaddr
pacakge): on such systems earlier versions of make-secnet-site would
fail.
This bugfix is going to be important in the future: a version of
secnet capable of transport over IPv6 is in the works, and that will
have a dependency on the conventional modern ipaddr module. 0.3.3 is
provided in part to make the upgrade transition easier.
0.3.3 also has minor improvements to mobile site transport address
handling and a minor build system improvement.
0.3.3~beta1 can be found here:
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git/secnet.git/
http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~secnet/release/0.3.3~beta1/
0.3.3 should be backwards-compatibile with previous versions. For
those on the SGO VPN: chiark is currently running an equivalent
version.
For a summary of the changes see the changelog extract below. For
full details see the git history.
secnet (0.3.3~beta1) unstable; urgency=low
Installation compatibility fix:
* In make-secnet-sites, always use our own ipaddr.py even if the
incompatible modern ipaddr.py is installed (eg via python-ipaddr.deb).
(Future versions of secnet are going to need that Python module to be
installed.)
For links involving mobile sites:
* Use source of NAK packets as hint for peer transport address.
* When initiating rekey, make use of data transport peer addresses.
Build fix:
* Provide clean target in test-example/Makefile.
