Quagga has not been developed any further since 2018, website is mostly down/broken, developer do not respond any more.
Please discontinue and do not ship quagga on LEAP-15.5 any more.
We've provided a last quagga update for openSUSE:Factory to address a security issue (factory only, SLE not affected) and provide an update-message heads-up about deletion from factory and suggestion to migrate to FRR, see:
update-message
update rq#1035188 (accepted) delete rq#1036299 (accepted)
The FRR project is vital and continues with the development, the frr package is available since SLE 15-SP3 and openSUSE Leap 15.3 and mentioned in the SLE-15-SP3 release notes (see SLE-13591).
From https://frrouting.org/: ?? FRR has its roots in the Quagga project. In fact, it was started by many long-time Quagga developers who combined their efforts to improve on Quagga’s well-established foundation in order to create the best routing protocol stack available. We invite you to participate in the FRRouting community and help shape the future of networking. ??
See also jsc#PED-2655 requesting the same for SLE-15-SP5.
Sounds good, Neal confirmed that package was dropped from Factory.
Note, we have to add it to release notes https://github.com/openSUSE/release-notes-openSUSE
Metadata Update from @lkocman: - Issue assigned to lkocman
Ah interestingly this package is actually inherited from SLES. I thought it was from openSUSE:Backports.
There is one coming from SLES-15:Update, and a newer fork from SP4:Update. In order to get rid of it we'd have filter it out.
Sounds really like to much effort and extra inconsistency in SLES vs Leap.
I highly doubt package would be removed from both SLE-15:Update and SLE-15-SP4:Update on SUSE side.
I can for sure make a jira request against SLES, but I'm 99.9% it will be rejected.
Alternatively (and IMHO more correctly) we could handle it on releas-notes + obsoletes from the successor package.
There is a running one for SLES, see https://jira.suse.com/browse/PED-2655 moved to remove it for SLE-15-SP6.
