[clamav-users] Announcing Fangfrisch release 1.9.0
Fangfrisch release 1.9.0 is now available via

https://pypi.org/project/fangfrisch/

Changes in this release:

- The logic for on_update* has been largely rewritten. As a
user-visible side effect, detailed debugging information about
on_update_* tasks is now available.

- For improved flexibility, configuration sections may now override
global on_update_exec and on_update_timeout. Eearlier Fangfrisch
versions only examined the DEFAULTS section.

- I added internal default configurations for two new providers;
InterServer [1] and Fangfrisch News [2]. As per usual, these new
providers are disabled by default.

[2] https://rseichter.github.io/fangfrisch/#ffnews

I am also happy to report that the new HTTP mirror for SaneSecurity
signature files is chugging along nicely. Over the last days, I have
counted 4672 unique client connections accessing these files, with a
slow but steady increase in numbers according to the logs.

-Ralph

Hi Ralph,

Thanks for the update and glad to see the mirror getting increased traffic.

Rsync mirrors ghave recently been given a boost with a couple of extra
hosts, which is also welcome news.

Cheers,

Are those requirements sharp? I wonder if Fangfrisch could run on older
Debian systems with Debian-shipped python packages.

Fangfrisch is available as a Debian package [1], but that does not
change the requirements. Besides, Requests 2.22.0 and SQLAlchemy 1.4.0
were released in 2019 and 2021, respectively, with numerous bugfixes and
feature releases since. Fangfrisch is already lenient when it comes to
requirements.

That package should be in the next Debian release. It can be backported to the current Debian stable release (Debian 12). Debian 10 still has LTS security support, but that's it. I don't find it surprising that it's too old.

I am certainly not surprised, in case you were wondering. What does
surprise me is that some people hold on to old software stacks for a
long time, even though an upgrade path is readily available. In any
case, returning to the original question: Fangfrisch's requirements are
not the result of arbitrary choices.
