I'm not totally sure if we can do this. 1.4.0 contains what could be a breaking-change (requiring HTTPS).
I see "Secure context (https) is now required" in the release tag, but I didn't find a corresponding commit that enforces this.... I'm not saying its not true, but rather I'm not sure how to assess the impact without reviewing the patch.
Yeah that's what I saw. If you can help me get to the bottom of what that means exactly it'd be a big help. I don't have time at the moment to dig into the source to try and figure it out. If that's not a breaking change I'll definitely update to 1.4.0 in EPEL9.
I found the first pointer : https://github.com/novnc/noVNC/commit/cdfb33665195eb9a73fb00feb6ebaccd1068cd50 but not sure what it means exactly...
I think it boils down to poor wording in the changelog. It's not that noVNC is requiring secure connections for anything but most of what it's a wrapper for is, so they added warnings. I looked around the source and nothing blocks connections or drops functionality. I'll go ahead and build 1.4.0 in EPEL9.
