Description satanist+freebsd 2026-04-03 08:26:31 UTC
Since yesterday I get the following error for all commands:

> User +123456789 is not registered.

I found https://github.com/AsamK/signal-cli/issues/1993#issuecomment-4172568954 upstream, which claims that the latest version is not affected. So an update to v0.14.1 might fix this.

This is very unfortunate...

I currently have https://bz-attachments.freebsd.org/attachment.cgi?id=268293 which updates it to 13.24, but even that is not getting merged ATM.

You can try to patch libsignal-cli (and libsignal) to the latest version yourself, it is not that difficult and all the instructions should be in the Makefile. 

I will have time either early next week, or maybe this weekend if I'm lucky. Once I have it finished, I will ping ports@freebsd.org as this is urgent.
Comment 2 satanist+freebsd 2026-04-03 16:46:47 UTC
I hadn't had time to test updating it myself. Last time I have tried updating libsignal, I failed because of the rust/cargo dependencies and gave up. If I find some time, I'll try to update it myself.

Ah yes that is a bit tricky, `make cargo-crates` does that stuff for you! First update before I knew also was not fun :)
