From 5927d556855d43f1d0495f3fb7ee2a287f04d8ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maximilian Bosch Date: Tue, 31 Oct 2023 14:12:00 +0100 Subject: privacyidea: remove Related to #262907 (Django3 removal from nixpkgs). This package already required an unreasonable amount of maintenance regularly for a such small leaf-package. It has a few highly outdated dependencies (e.g. flask 1, jinja2 2.11, sqlalchemy 1.3). After at least each Python package-set update one had to fix up a lot of dependencies to fix the package itself, so it was only useful on stable branches. And having so much outdated software in a security-sensitive piece of software seems questionable. Finally, globin and I won't be available for maintaining this now that Mayflower is migrating to another solution (and we'll do that as well) and I'd expect this to bitrot extremely quick if we both bail out. --- nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2311.section.md | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'nixos/doc/manual') diff --git a/nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2311.section.md b/nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2311.section.md index 7af4a99906c..276e7c9384e 100644 --- a/nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2311.section.md +++ b/nixos/doc/manual/release-notes/rl-2311.section.md @@ -339,6 +339,8 @@ - `service.borgmatic.settings.location` and `services.borgmatic.configurations..location` are deprecated, please move your options out of sections to the global scope. +- `privacyidea` (and the corresponding `privacyidea-ldap-proxy`) has been removed from nixpkgs because it has severely outdated dependencies that became unmaintainable with nixpkgs' python package-set. + - `dagger` was removed because using a package called `dagger` and packaging it from source violates their trademark policy. - `win-virtio` package was renamed to `virtio-win` to be consistent with the upstream package name. -- cgit 1.4.1
