Thanks for filing this bug in Ubuntu. This does sound like an interesting feature to have. For reference, the changes between 4.90 and 4.92 can be seen here: https://github.com/Exim/exim/blob/master/src/README.UPDATING
The SRU policy permits such an update to a stable release, but we will have to balance the risk and the amount of work needed. I'll accept the bug, and put it in our backlog, but we don't have an estimate for this. Any help would be welcomed, of course. In particular, filing out the SRU template https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#SRU_Bug_Template for this bug. Having a good test case, and solid arguments for this update, will go a long way. I'll also mark this as fix released for cosmic, disco and eoan. I couldn't find a trivial way to check if exim was built with dane support, but ldd in the exim main binary seems good enough. It shows the binary linked with libgnutls-dane on cosmic and later, but not on bionic. ** Also affects: exim4 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: exim4 (Ubuntu Disco) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: exim4 (Ubuntu Cosmic) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu Cosmic) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu Disco) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: exim4 (Ubuntu Bionic) Importance: Undecided => Wishlist -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server, which is subscribed to exim4 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1828810 Title: no dane support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/exim4/+bug/1828810/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
