Doing the same 🦅

@poiana are you happy now? 😸

[leogr]

Update:

• drivers are building (see the CI status on https://github.com/falcosecurity/test-infra - N.B.: one job is broken, we will re-run it when others finish)

@poiana are you happy now? 😸

Do not harass my friendly bot please :D

[leodido]

@araujof ty for opening this PR. Anyways, the Release PR field is probably wrong. You probably mistyped the PR :)

[leogr]

Update:

While extensively testing Falco, we found a last-minute bug (as usual 😞, full details here 👉 falcosecurity/libs#89).
We are working on a fix, which should be available soon. But, unfortunately, the fix probably will require changing the driver version and so rebuild pre-builts drivers again. That will probably delay the release a bit.
I will keep you posted.

While extensively testing Falco, we found a last-minute bug (as usual disappointed, full details here point_right falcosecurity/libs#89). We are working on a fix, which should be available soon. But, unfortunately, the fix probably will require changing the driver version and so rebuild pre-builts drivers again. That will probably delay the release a bit. I will keep you posted.

The workaround was to downgrade openssl (see falcosecurity/libs#90). A new driver version is now required, so we need to update Falco and re-build drivers. Hopefully, we are still in time for tomorrow's release (otherwise we will just delay a bit).

[zuc]

Thanks to everyone who helped (@jasondellaluce @FedeDP @lucklypse @leogr), we now have:

• fix(cmake): downgrade openssl to 1.0.2u libs#90
• build(cmake): bump libs version to 3aa7a83 #1744
• Replace driver version 5727c45 with 3aa7a83 test-infra#522

Then we should be finally good!

[leogr]

Dev packages are ready to be tested:

• https://download.falco.org/packages/bin-dev/x86_64/falco-0.29.1-30%2B46d5266-x86_64.tar.gz
• https://download.falco.org/packages/deb-dev/stable/falco-0.29.1-30%2B46d5266-x86_64.deb
• https://download.falco.org/packages/rpm-dev/falco-0.29.1-30%2B46d5266-x86_64.rpm

Also, for the latest docker image: docker pull falcosecurity/falco:master

Note for the release team: since falcosecurity/test-infra#522 got merged, we have to clean up the 5727c45 from S3 because it does not belong to any Falco release. I will take care of that.
