Good morning everyone,
Online repository with latest Squid 7.4 (rebuilt from sources in Debian)
for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS 64-bit is available at https://github.com/diladele/
repo-squid-7_4_1-ubuntu-24_04/ <https://github.com/diladele/repo-
squid-7_4_1-ubuntu-24_04/>.
Github repo https://github.com/diladele/squid-ubuntu <https://
github.com/diladele/squid-ubuntu> contains all scripts we used to make
this compilation.
Here are simple instructions how to use the repo.
# get diladele apt key, dearmor it and add to trusted storage
curl https://packages.diladele.com/diladele_pub.asc | gpg --dearmor >/
etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/diladele_pub.asc.gpg
# add new repo
echo "deb https://diladele.github.io/repo-squid-7_4_1-ubuntu-24_04/repo/
ubuntu/ noble main" \
>/etc/apt/sources.list.d/squid-7_4_1.diladele.github.io.list
# and install
apt update && apt install -y \
squid-common \
squid-openssl \
libecap3 libecap3-dev
Hmm, you should only need to install "squid-openssl" here.
* squid-common and libecap* are auto-installed as dependencies.
* the *-dev package is only needed to build ecap things from source.
# create the override folder for squid
mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/squid.service.d/
# and override the default number of file descriptors
cat >/etc/systemd/system/squid.service.d/override.conf << EOL
[Service]
LimitNOFILE=65535
EOL
Okay, though it is better to use squid.conf to set this limit:
max_filedescriptors 65535
# switch to openssl based squid
update-alternatives --set squid /usr/sbin/squid-openssl
# finally reload the systemd
systemctl daemon-reload
That should not be needed anymore. Installing a Debian based
squid-openssl package you should see:
"update-alternatives: using /usr/sbin/squid-openssl to provide
/usr/sbin/squid (squid) in auto mode"
And "squid -v" should contain:
"This binary uses OpenSSL " ...
Cheers
Amos
