Hello, We do not provide binaries; only source code. Binaries are managed by the package maintainers for the different distributions.

The only exception for that are windows binaries which we offer as a low-maintenance community service because compiling on these systems is not the easiest thing to do.

I am not accustomed with EdgeOS but it seems to be a linux variation. Compiling the source code on the system should be possible. Cross-compiling for that system should also be possible.

You can also ping the EdgeOS package maintainers to see if they are willing to provide newer packages.

You can also try to reach other unbound users, that may have similar experience, on the official mailing list at https://lists.nlnetlabs.nl/mailman/listinfo/unbound-users.

I hope that this was useful somehow but unfortunately I cannot help you further; closing this issue.
