Change the default network from Freenode to Libera

This was fixed for impish in 2.14.3-6.

For hirsute, I recommend a straight backport from impish, since after all the -6 release was targeted exactly for this one change (plus that extra recommends, which I'd hope it's noop for 99.9% for hexchat users…).

I'm uploading this already.

Backport of the relevant patches to groovy, tested that the content of the network selector changed as expected.

uploading.

focal has the same version as groovy, so it's the very same thing with just the changelog tweaked.

nevertheless, tested on focal as well with the same result.

uploading.

for bionic the patch is somewhat different because later the patches handling the the default networks were moved around. anyway, it's basically the same.

tested successfully in the same manner as the other releases.

uploading.

The Bionic upload which would fix this bug is also a new upstream version updating hexchat from 2.14.1-2 to 2.14.2-2, however there is no information regarding this new upstream version in this bug report nor is there a test plan documented for that new upstream version. Did you want to bump the version of hexchat in Bionic?

Uh, no...
I must have mistyped the version in the process.
Thank you for catching it!

Although I'm sure the update would be just fine (and very very likely
2.14.2 brought only bugfixes from 2.14.1), I don't have plans on reviewing
it and actually working out the SRU process for the whole update.

Unless you'd be looking at the real diff, etc yourself, please reject the
bionic upload: I'll redo the change against the correct version and
resubmit next week (when I'll be back from holidays).

I've rejected the Bionic upload.

I enabled -proposed and upgraded my Hexchat installation to version to 2.14.3-3ubuntu0.20.04.1. I removed the existing settings at ~/.config/hexchat so that Hexchat started without any personal configuration so acted as if it was a new installation.

On starting Hexchat I was greeted with a dialog that prompted me to connect to "Ubuntu Servers (Libera.Chat)". After connecting a further dialog prompted me to join the #ubuntu channel.

Marking the focal update as verified.

groovy, version 2.14.3-3ubuntu0.20.10.1

Same test that paulw2u did.

hirsute, version 2.14.3-6~0ubuntu21.04.1

again, same test.

I just uploaded a new proposed update for bionic, attaching the new debdiff. version 2.14.1-2ubuntu0.18.04.1
