Dear Maintainer,
Just found out, the latest security update for Debian v11, breaks command bos.
Any attempt to run "bos status <server>" returns:
bos: running unauthenticated
bos: failed to contact host's bosserver (RPC interface mismatch (-451)).
I did not test any of the other options of command bos. I have been
told that bos is the only broken command with this update.
