To follow up in order to prevent duplicate work,
Michael Richardson has offered to update libpcap in the beginning of
November
Dirk Neukirchen has submitted a patch for libs/gettext-full 0.19.8.1
which has been accepted - http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/681336/
Karl Palsson and Dirk Feytons have expressed concerns updating the
current version Lua due to possible performance regressions and code
(language) incompatibilities. Suggested upgrade path is to create a
separate package and go from there, pretty much like python 2 vs 3.
Many thanks for the response and commitment to this request.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi,
I've been trying with my limited set of skills to get most packages
and libraries up to date but I'm getting stuck on these below since
they have a lot patches and I can't adapt these for current versions
or even make out if they're all even needed. Since there's going to be
a release later on I think it's a good idea to keep everything up to
date even if it may cost a bit of storage space since it's going to
help porting new software and easier to report bugs etc upstream if
needed. I also think that if we're going to do this we should get it
in tree as soon as possible so there's time to fix occasional issues
that may occur. If anyone wants to take a stab at these I think it
would be beneficial to the project in the end.
