[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/babeld: bump to version 1.10

[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] package/babeld: bump to version 1.10

[Dario Binacchi]

- Removed the disambiguation code: source-specific routing is no longer
  supported for IPv4, and for IPv6 only on Linux 3.11 or later.
- Fixed an issue handling of retractions with no next hop, which caused
  interoperability problems with BIRD.  Thanks to Fabian Bläse.
- If skip-kernel-setup is set, we no longer disable the rp_filter, which
  makes babeld work in containers.  Thanks to Martin Weinelt.

Fixes:

Hmm, sorry but why a version bump is needed to fix an issue about a
tarball not being found?

This is generally a sign that upstream is moving tarballs around after
they are released, which means that at some point the issue will occur
again with babeld 1.10.

Could you check what happened with the babeld 1.9.2 tarball, perhaps by
contacting upstream?

(I mean of course we will want to update babeld to version 1.10, but
this should be done separately than fixing the download issue)

Thanks!

Thomas

This is the response from Juliusz Chroboczek, one of the maintainers of
the project:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.9.2 was released in April 2020, it's over four years old.  Some features
were removed in 1.13, but there's really no reason to run anything older
than 1.12.2.

> What happened to it?

It's been moved into the archive directory:

  https://www.irif.fr/~jch/software/files/old/

> If it won't be re-added, can I refer to https://github.com/jech/babeld

Yes, that's a good idea; even though I have misgivings about github, I'm
not planning to move away anytime soon.  Please use tagged versions rather
than the master head.

Thanks,

-- Juliusz
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So at this point, I can change the official repository from which to download
version 1.9.2 and then proceed with a version bump.
For now, I'll send the fix.
Do you agree?

Thanks and regards,
Dario

Please reply to him that moving files around breaks things for build
systems and Linux distributions. It is _really_ not nice.

Yes, use the Github repo, at least it's stable.

Another option is to drop the package entirely. It was added by Maxime
Hadjinlian back in 2016, and Maxime is no longer using Buildroot. The
last bump was done by Sergio Prado in 2020, and nobody touched the
package since then, despite an active upstream. Nobody is associated to
it in the DEVELOPERS file.

Thanks!

Thomas
