technically I'm still on leave for another month so right now it's not my problem(tm) ;)

I wouldn't bind not to have to use xinetd at all tho… ;)

(👋)

Zhenech: I thought we'd drop EL7 (which is the only place we use it) and then it'd be solved

I didn't want to bother with xinetd → systemd service migration

+1000 for setting xinetd on fire

it's not used for tftp on el8?

nope, and you can use a daemon on EL7 as well but we missed that when el6 → el7 happened

"oh"

first time I see these files

you can set tftp:daemon true on EL7 and provided you do the migration, pretty sure that works

(we have tests for that)

simp/tftpboot works on both EL7 and EL8 and should have compliance mappings bulit-in if you're interested in that.

I'd still prefer to use the real services instead of xinetd, other than that I wouldn't mind merging modules

just like theforeman/dhcp and puppet/dhcp deserve a merge

See the

https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/SERVER-2539 during the last core office-hours we collected some ideas for speeding up pluginsync (which is a requirement for syncing custom datatypes which is a requirement for using them in deferred functions). I collected the different ideas we had. If you've some thoughts please comment.

_curses a bit at YAML.safe_load on older Rubies_

maybe drop the idea of a minor release and just do a major one

and what? drop Ruby 2.7 support? ;)

I am fine with dropping 2.4 and 2.5 :p

both are EoL

Puppet 6 uses Ruby 2.5, right? that makes me hesitant

https://github.com/voxpupuli/beaker/pull/1736 is now green

yes it does

but again it is EoL and Puppet 6 is EoL soon as well

isn't that end of the year?

yep
