The old iptables-nft package name is replaced by iptables, and the
legacy backend is available as iptables-legacy.
When switching packages (among iptables-nft, iptables, iptables-legacy),
check for .pacsave files in /etc/iptables/ and restore your rules if needed:
- /etc/iptables/iptables.rules.pacsave
- /etc/iptables/ip6tables.rules.pacsave
Most setups should work unchanged, but users relying on uncommon xtables
extensions or legacy-only behavior should test carefully and use
iptables-legacy if required.

The dovecot 2.4 release branch has made breaking changes which result
in it being incompatible with any <= 2.3 configuration file.
Thus, the dovecot service will no longer be able to start until the
configuration file was migrated, requiring manual intervention.
For guidance on the 2.3-to-2.4 migration, please refer to the
following upstream documentation:
Upgrading Dovecot CE from 2.3 to 2.4
Furthermore, the dovecot 2.4 branch no longer supports their
replication feature, it was removed.
For users relying on the replication feature or who are unable to
perform the 2.4 …

Starting with 7.4.1-2, the following Zabbix system user accounts (previously shipped by their related packages) will no longer be used. Instead, all Zabbix components will now rely on a shared zabbix user account (as originally intended by upstream and done by other distributions):
- zabbix-server
- zabbix-proxy
- zabbix-agent (also used by the
zabbix-agent2 package)
- zabbix-web-service
This shared zabbix user account is provided by the newly introduced zabbix-common split package, which is now a dependency for all relevant zabbix-* packages.
The switch to the new user account is handled automatically for the corresponding main configuration files and systemd service …
OpenRC now requires services local, localmount and netmount to be added to runlevel default.
This can be done with commands:
rc-update add local default
rc-update add localmount default
rc-update add netmount default
The update brings experimental user services support. Our wiki page has been updated to include information about it.
i686 users will probably be unable to upgrade, due to a problem with the latest archlinux32-keyring 20241114-1
the solution is posted on the bug tracker
