Does anyone know of a working copy of the squeeze-lts package repo? I realize LTS support ended Feb 29, 2016. But now that the repo (and mirrors) are gone, I cannot get any updates or build a new squeeze environment.
I revived an old dev environment I had last year and have been playing with a personal vyOS build. I added the latest openssh packages (7.2p2-1) built from source and slightly modified debian source package (borrowing the packaging files). I also am playing with the OpenStack integration mentioned here:
I was going to get the latest updates for the glibc fix, but I cannot do that anymore without a valid squeeze-lts repo. I also need to see if there is a newer kerberos 5 dev library, since openssh 7.2 won’t compile with the version I have (I had to disable it to compile).
Can anyone build a new squeeze environment to develop vyos without a working squeeze repo, or are those with a working dev environment the last one’s standing with whatever squeeze packages you last downloaded?
I just found some info on the Beryllium work on Jessie, and I may play with it in parallel. But I still need to use my current firewall until Beryllium is semi-functional. I was aiming to integrate LDAP central authentication (including SSH public keys stored in openLDAP) into vyos. That capability is only in later versions of openssh and I need an ldap client package. I may be out of luck…
Argh… Sorry - I just found my answer posted by pkilla in the vyos phabricator board…
I’m a long-time Linux user but a newbie on Debian.
Would you please give the procedure for making use of this on an installed debian squeeze system?
I can install a minimal debian squeeze 6.0 system from a vagrant install but I don’t know what to change to be able to update it to latest and also install other packages.
When I try a “apt-get update” and “apt-get upgrade” it tries to download things and gives zero-length file error messages.
I supposed that is because it is not supported any more?
If there is still a way to do that with the above reference, that would greatly help.
I’m starting to work on a VM for VyOS developers that would allow developers to download a GITHUB repository and with a “vagrant up” command, have a working development system.
If I can get this working for VyOS 1.1.7 (Debian Squeeze) then I will probably also do the same for the next version of VyOS.
If someone has already done this, please point me to where it is available.
