#66568 closed enhancement

improve the Livecheck of libressl — at Initial Version

Description

I appreciate the current parallel update to libressl and libressl-devel by the new maintainers.

However, would it be possible to improve / enhance the Livecheck procedure of libressl in a way that this port does not flag an "outdated" if just one major version behind libressl-devel port?

Example and proposal:

  • libressl 3.6.1 should not be outdated because of 3.7.x
  • libressl 3.6.1 shall become outdated if 3.6.2 upstream
  • libressl 3.6.x shall become outdated if 3.8 or newer upstream
  • libressl-devel 3.7.0 should continue being outdated by 3.7.1 or 3.8 or newer

IMO this enhancement would improve the user experience including the view on the port library GUI (see attach).

My five cents.

Furthermore, you may approach me to volunteer with more commitment by myself providing an improved Livecheck formula. However, I may be slow in response and/or slow on meeting a schedule.

Naturally, you could set the priority of this Ticket to Low until I meet your expections in due time.
