Bug Description

Hi there!

Looking for a way to update our freeradius servers, (2.1.x and 2.2.x are on EOL http://freeradius.org/version2.html) hoping that on the next Ubuntu LTS there will be 3.x freeradius version (Centos 7 already has 3.0.x rpm package) found that the free-radius package version still on the 2.x branch.

Developers mark 3.x as the stable version of free radius so i think a new LTS should package that version.

Robie Basak (racb)
summary: - 2.x versions are EOL
+ Please update packaging to 3.x

freeradius is stuck, because it now depends on collectd, which is in universe. Submitting an updated build that drops collectd support.

The freeradius dependencies are cleared, but there was a regression in Debian wrt. autopkgtests. That is also fixed (also in Debian), so freeradius 3.x should migrate to the release pocket soon.
