patch v1

Hi,

I've noticed a new version of kea is available. I've created an update do 2.7.4

I was also pushed to do this because recently 2.6.1 started dumping core on my RPi3 (aarm64), compiled via poudriere using qemu emulation.

This new version includes some patches and is not crashing anymore.

DO you think you can approve this patch?

Thanks in advance!

Historically this port is following stable (even) branch of kea, would you like to create a kea-dev port instead to follow the development (odd) release branch? I'm not sure if switching this port to devel won't upset some people.

Hi,

I admit I was not aware this project kept odd minor version numbers for devel version. I'm aware many projects follow this practice, but it is not universal and I did not check their docs (my fault).

I do no plan to add a devel version actually. I tested upgrading the software because it was crashing on startup for me on arm64 arch, but maybe it is an issue only happening to me. So, for now, I'll keep this as a local patch.

I could create a devel port if other users reported crashes too, or maybe I should investigate differences between 2.6.1 and 2.7.4 to understand what is causing the crashes. But would do this only if needed for the benefit of the project/others.

Closing this. Thanks for your feedback!
