[Kea-users] Clean up of older Kea repositories hosted on Cloudsmith

[Wlodek Wencel]

We are initiating a clean-up of older repositories on Cloudsmith. The
repositories hosting development branches 1.9 and 2.1 will be
decommissioned on February 29, 2024. The repository for the 2.3 releases
is scheduled for removal on March 29, 2024. Moreover, the repository for
the 2.5 releases will be phased out following the public availability of
the stable 2.6.0 release.

Additionally, beginning with the 2.7.X release series, we will be
launching a new repository on Cloudsmith, named kea-dev, which will host
the 2.7.X release alongside all future development releases.

It's important to note that repositories for stable releases will remain
unaffected.

Should you require packages from the 1.9, 2.1, or 2.3 releases, we
strongly recommend creating a backup copy.

It's possible to use wget tool to download particular packages e.g: wget
https://dl.cloudsmith.io/public/isc/kea-2-1/deb/debian/pool/stretch/main/p/
py/python3-isc-kea-connector_2.1.7-isc20220627172414/python3-isc-kea-connec
tor_2.1.7-isc20220627172414_all.deb

or use package manager. apt-get download <package-name>; dnf download
<package-name>;

The source code for each release can be accessed and will continue to be
available on our FTP site at https://downloads.isc.org/isc/kea/.
