Prebuild OPNsense package? #2

Open NKnusperer opened 1 year ago

NKnusperer commented 1 year ago

Hello, would it be possible to get a prebuild OPNsense package in the GitHub Release section?

ivancucer commented 1 year ago

It'd be just amazing to have one. @fichtner any ideas?

NKnusperer commented 1 year ago

Probably not until it is actually working, see #1.

ivancucer commented 1 year ago

Ah got it well I'm gonna purchase then an external modem with LAN connectivity or simply start using a RouterOS instead lol

This source code was given a home, but it was so far not picked up by FreeBSD and also not properly ported to FreeBSD 13.1 what is being used in OPNsense 13.1.

ivancucer commented 1 year ago

@fichtner thanks for your reply. Do you think there is a chance that it'll be ported to 13.1 in the near future?

The upstream ticket is here https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=263783 but it doesn't look like it's being worked on. The user open sourced the code itself, but apparently not help with inclusion in FreeBSD.

As core team we have other priorities and kernel drivers are not our main area of work.
