Hey,
It looks like https://bird.network.cz/?download&tdir=debian/
<https://bird.network.cz/?download&tdir=debian/> is abandoned, both
the key is wrong (does not match the packages) and the latest build is
wheezy, which dropped support on 2018-05-31.
Yes, this is completely out-of-date and should be finally updated.
As others pointed out, new upstream repos for Debian and Ubuntu are
available at
https://pkg.labs.nic.cz/doc/?project=bird
Also note that:
* Debian unstable contains latest bird2, currently 2.15.1
* Debian stable (12 Bookworm) contains patched bird2 2.0.12 - Debian
stable policy doesn't allow rebase to later versions (for good reasons)
And i just checked, the latest fedora package is for fedora 30, i'm
running on fedora 40...
You probably checked bird2, but that was a temporary package, the
current one in Fedora is just bird (without 2) here:
https://packages.fedoraproject.org/pkgs/bird/bird/
It's at latest 2.15.1 on all active Fedoras and EPEL >= 8, no external
repos needed.
Why are these builds not automated?
They are finally mostly automated after my many efforts, but this isn't
reflected in the BIRD docs.
p.s. It would be nice if you allowed posting issues on the github page
https://github.com/CZ-NIC/bird. It lowers the barrier to entry a ton
and might spike interest in the project. Just a thought.
I agree.
Cheers,
