Name

Version

Reason for updating

OpenConnect on solus repos are still on version 8.10 which released 4 years ago. This version of OpenConnect is keeping me from connecting to corporate vpn. I imagine it's affecting others as well.

The openconnect project doesn't seem to use gitlab's release feature but their changelog page seems to imply that the versions listed on there are stable versions.

This builds fine when I bump it to 9.12. Any idea how to test it? Are there public VPNs that use this?

Great to hear! Appreciate you taking a stab at this.

I don't actually know of a good way for you to test it without setting up a vpn server yourself, which is going to be a hassle. Is there any way I can test it for you? Is that a thing?

I'm on stable repos still but I think you can share a *.eopkg file that I can install locally right? I can also only really test in gnome.

Re: testing: That's what I figured.

I will share a test eopkg after the next sync (likely Friday). Right now the package would not install on a stable system. Are you in our matrix room by chance?
