Rawhide will be updated to Squid-3.1 when 3.1 is released.

3.1.0.6 is still just a release candidate, not intended for production use.

Greetings:

Then please explain to me why, rawhide is all about alpha, beta, and release candidate software!

If Fedora does not use a piece of software until it is released, then explain the kernel...  and so many more.  Cups is also one of them....

Sincerely Yours,
Rob

Comment 3 Martin Nagy 2009-03-16 08:10:17 UTC
I'm personally not against the update, but you should know that rawhide is not necessarily about newest unstable software. It all depends on the maintainer's judgement.

Comment 4 Rob G. Healey 2009-03-16 18:58:15 UTC
I am sorry that you are not the maintainer of this software...

From my understanding, I thought that Fedoraproject was about the community?  I guess not so if one person has the right to decide if a software package makes it in or not???

Sincerely,
Rob

Comment 5 Henrik Nordström 2009-03-16 22:57:47 UTC
Tag down please. And yes I am one of the maintainers of Squid, both upstream and here in Fedora.

The reasons why 3.1 is not yet in rawhide:

  *) 3.1 is not yet released.

  *) 3.1 still has issues being worked out, some of which makes it not compile correctly in Fedora rawhide

  *) There is some uncertainity regarding the final release date for Squid-3.1. Due to the problems discovered the 3.1 release is already long overdue compared to it's intended release date.

Hopefully things will settle shortly.
