suricata 7 haș been released and seems to be stable enough for prime time. As far as I can see, we have all prerequisites so that we should be able to upgrade easily.
Patch set submitted. libhtp had to be updated to 0.5.45 elfutils had to be made a core program as suricata-7 requires libelf.so.1 to be available when running. Earlier suricata versions only needed elfutils to be available during the build. Changing elfutils to a core program required updates of those addons having elfutils as a dependency. https://lists.ipfire.org/hyperkitty/list/development@lists.ipfire.org/thread/JOSPDTXSJF4WU4NMSDX2QQJK3234YYGX/ https://patchwork.ipfire.org/project/ipfire/list/?series=4150
(In reply to Adolf Belka from comment #1) > Patch set submitted. Great! I have merged the elfutils part because that is kind of independent from suricata and what can be shipped I would like to ship :) On Suricata itself I am not so sure if this should be part of c184 because hopefully that will go into testing phase this week. That might be too short notice for Suricata, especially looking at the other changes that we still have left to do.

As it is a major version change we shouldn't rush it too fast.
