Description Adolf Belka 2025-01-02 17:37:22 UTC

Some ipblocklists, such as Feodo Recommended are still updated but not so frequently and so can end up having periods when they are empty.

This empty status flags up as an unexpected error when trying to download the empty list.

The following message is shown in the logs if the list is empty.

Could not update FEODO_RECOMMENDED blocklist - Unexpected error! 

This was discussed in the November 2024 IPFire conf call.
