Quack,

Here is a todolist of all the things we need to care to help upgrading to the new Debian release when it's out.

Software that would need upgrading:

• Inspircd v3 (backported in our repo and config adapted/improved)
• Mailman 3
• Bind9 9.16 (backport available) with DNSSEC key management changes which need procedures and Ansible adaptation
• [CAN WAIT] zabbix: custom vfs.dev.discovery conflicts with new agent item see #738
• [CAN WAIT] zabbix-cli: Python 2, need to package a newer version supporting Python 3 see #738
• ruby-httpclient: breaks apt-listbugs because of #995448, fixed in unstable but not yet in stable backported in our repo

Software that need to be replaced and why (unmaintained, problematic…):

• tacacs+: Python 2, dead project giving up, will reconfigure DL switches
• syslog-summary: Python 2, dead project suggested by logcheck but should not be needed, removed

Software that we could consider for deprecation:

Other things to consider:

• Redmine is still not catching up with Rails 6 and will not be in Bullseye, maybe backport but expected much later LXD container prepared using Ansible, data (attachments) synced, reverse proxy config created for both instances
• specific packages: we have specific ports/backports:
  • repo config update
  • list of needed packages for bullseye, updated in the wiki
  • packaging
  • spoolinger needs upstream changes since setup.rb is obsolete and cannot build in Debian anymore
• APT security suite naming changed, need to update the apt Ansible role
• remove all default_release: buster-backports in our roles
