[Pkg-netatalk-devel] Bug#685878: netatalk 3

[Matt Taggart]

Hi,

Any update on netatalk 3? Upstream appears to be 3.1.11 now.

Regarding Joseph's comment about support for DDP, while it would be nice 
to maintain that, I don't think it should hold up getting version 3 in 
the archive. I think the number of people that need version 4 is many 
times greater than those that need DDP.

If needed another netatalk 2 source package could be created later. But 
I would worry about upstream security support, whoever wants to take on 
such a task would need to own supporting it.
Upstream _did_ do a 2.2.6 release on 30 Jun 2017, so maybe they are 
still providing _some_ support?

BTW when poking around I found references to this github page

   https://github.com/Netatalk/Netatalk

Did upstream move there? Or is it a fork/clone? There are issues in the 
issue tracker there too.

Thanks,
