@Eric, William, I think you're taking a very narrow view on this when a more thoughtful review is needed.
Ubuntu should identify a general policy on 'client <-> server' version backwards and forwards compatibility guarantees. That policy should be implemented here. The fact this particular client-server mismatch is somewhat trivial to fix should not really be individually be considered. It is simply not feasible for Ubuntu to support and carry delta from upstream for all clients shipping in 23.10 that do not interoperate with servers shipped in 14.04. @Eric, You are welcome to float the patch upstream. But they *have* intentionally and specifically dropped python 3.4 support. That doesn't seem unreasonable since python 3.4 went end of life in March of 2019. https://github.com/sshuttle/sshuttle/commit/1b50d364c67ae1eb9dc831e312fc11b75f4ad43e -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1873368 Title: ssshuttle server fails to connect endpoints with python 3.8 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sshuttle/+bug/1873368/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
