Thank you. Please let me know if you need any help. > That being said, I'd like to explore all options, given the direction upstream > is taking. Would it be feasible to cherry-pick the patchset moving to loofah? It looks like these seven commits are part of the loofah transition: https://github.com/search? q=repo%3Aredmine%2Fredmine+merge%3Afalse+42737&type=commits I haven’t tested it, but I would be surprised if all of these applied cleanly on 6.1. As a general rule, I don’t like to cherry-pick patches this large as they can introduce corner case bugs that are hard to catch. > Otherwise, does Redmine 7 require Rails 8?

That was indeed a typo and I meant to send it to debian-ruby. -- Soren Stoutner [email protected]
