Planning to drop deprecated samba releases in Gentoo
Monday, August 30th, 2010Currently, the releases 3.0 , 3.2, 3.4 and 3.5 of samba are available in Gentoo, but upstream has discontinued releases 3.0 and 3.2 for a while, and currently they are actively maintaining 3.4 and 3.5 .
For the above reason and in order to avoid security issues, I'm planning to drop releases 3.0 and 3.2 from the tree soon, but I'm interested in to know why you, fellow users, are using those old releases. Haven't you updated your system? Perhaps something is not working right for you with currently stable samba 3.4?
Let me know your thoughts
