They will probably keep the last version before the license change for a while, and probably add minor community-sourced patches. The next version of ubuntu will include mongdb version "3.6.9+really3.6.8+90~g8e540c0b6d" which you

This is also a problem with Square, and Stripe, and Paypal ... it's an unsolvable fraud/scammer problem. Basically, if there was customer support that could fix the problem, then skilled scammers can get money and control out of t

True, but good video drivers, and good calls/texts, are often the very hardest parts for an open-source phone project. The rest can be improved later, by community contributors even. Historically the case has often been "well it

alpine 3.8 (and 3.7) branch have gcc-6.4 which was released in July 2017. For a C compiler, that is absolutely sufficient. You'll find many other packages in the 3.8 release branch are more up-to-date, this is a bit of an exception. Th

I completely believe you - but think about how absurd that is. Why did any of them want to write any rust a month ago? Were all rust users really naive/dumb to think that rust 1.29 was any good at all? Only 2 months later they never wa

And you can build GCC-8 with GCC-4.8, whereas rust seems to require at least the previous version of rust. It would be reasonable for rust 1.19 to be able to build the latest release for the next couple of years ... rust 1.19 is less than 1

It helps with debug-logging from make anyway (the -d flag), so you get just a few relevant lines of checked rules for each target, instead of a page of irrelevant stuff like "maybe in SCCS there's a .y file which can generate a .c

You probably want to encrypt it with a public key for which the raspi has the private key. You could validate the public key with a qr-code on the raspi, or some other pre-arranged scheme. This is a very similar situation to being able to a

UDP is the new IP. You can't practically have your users install an upgraded OS kernel with TCP rate control improvements, you can't fix queuing in their NAT gateway, and you can't get SCTP working through their ISP. So, you

Most embedded devices which have ssh server functionality use Dropbear. You'll have to look really hard to find anything which uses this "libssh" server functionality (which, again, is _not openssh_).

What makes this a bit more understandable is: almost nothing uses libssh server functionality. So most development was only focused on client functionality. (The only notable exception, github.com backends, were not using the auth logic cod

The default includes TLSv1.2 (along with TLSv1.1 and TLSv1). So the default does and will continue to use TLSv1.2 with browsers that support it, and will still work when browsers disable TLSv1 and TLSv1.1

You can _disable_ it though. It can't be completely removed because it's part of the somewhat-immutable firmware image. Annoying, but not nearly as bad as force-enabled.
