Hi, indeed this was about breaking configuration changes I had missed. The experimental version suggested by Adrian Bunk turned out to just cause additional hurdles though - we struggled for a couple of hours with perfectly good configs altered for 4.x, but this experimental version somehow prevented things from working. Ultimately downgrading to the trixie 4.7.0+ds1-2 version with proper configs this time resulted in working server links.
In addition to the quite trivial syntax changes, the biggest problem was actually how we were using MD5 fingerprints earlier, and many configuration examples fail to support this in migration. In the end nothing special was required to support self-signed certificates here, just the syntax changes and comparing with correct hash type. For reference this is the current minimalistic config that does work with 4.x for us <server name="redacted"> <module name="m_spanningtree.so"> <module name="m_sslinfo.so"> <module name="m_ssl_gnutls.so"> <bind address="127.0.0.1" port="6667"> <connect allow="127.0.0.1" port="6667"> <sslprofile name="server" provider="gnutls" hash="sha256"> <bind address="" port="6666" sslprofile="server" type="servers"> <link name="redacted" ipaddr="redacted" port="6666" sendpass="x" recvpass="x" sslprofile="server" fingerprint="redacted"> <pid file="/var/run/inspircd.pid"> <log method="file" type="* -USERINPUT -USEROUTPUT" level="default" target="/var/log/inspircd.log"> Bug can be closed, hopefully this is clearly communicated for anyone using apt-listchanges (I wasn't...)
