Deprecation request.

[TheMeier]

This module looks abandoned, we should consider deprecating it.

I've not worked on it for a bit as I changed companies. I don't think it was in that bad a shape though, and I don't know of any better replacement. ProxySQL itself is still actively developed, so I'm not keen on deprecated this. I think it'd make it much harder for anyone using the module to contribute. #191 wasn't that long ago either.

As for the current test failures, has anyone got an idea about Oracle Linux failing? I vaguely recall seeing similar failures in a different module. Can't remember where though...

Last release was 2021 though

[alexjfisher]

yeah, so if we can fix the tests, modulesync and get a release out, that'd be great. There was even an offer of help in #195 and several thumbs up from other people who would like to see it too.

Apr 30 22:06:48 oracle7-64-puppet7.example.com systemd[1]: New main PID 1188 does not belong to service, and PID file is not owned by root. Refusing.

Is the error. Since we've not had a release in years, I'd also hold back on removing any EOL OSes until after a release has been made.
