Now that we found a workaround for making freeradius-client work, it is not as urgent to change to radcli, but it is still desirable because it has more upstream support and better syslog messages about problems.
Process: Wait for upstream feedback on these two issues: https://github.com/radcli/radcli/issues/3 https://github.com/radcli/radcli/issues/5 Review packaging if necessary based on that feedback. https://packages.qa.debian.org/r/radcli.html Review the first installation config file migration issue for change from freeeradius-client to radcli: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=805771 This should be dealt with and the radcli package installed and we should verify that config files appear to have the correct settings before a newer version of reSIProcate comes through jessie-backports with a dependency on radcli If manual config file migration is the outcome of #805771, then copy the necessary changes from /etc/radiusclient/* to /etc/radcli Finally, resiprocate linked with radcli should be put into jessie-backports and installed onto vogler.debian.org
