Radare2 Update? about salt-states HOT 5 OPEN

I'm not sure what is going on here but I'm assuming that because the version in /usr/local/src/ is not similar to the most current version it is rejecting it as a downgrade without accepting the downgrade and there for failing?
saltstack.log

I grabbed the current version (5.8.8) to where it says it stores the files, updated the version number and the hash to the radare2.sls, stuffed it into the gzip file locally on under my 2024.2.2 folder, updated the sha256 file, and reran remnux upgrade and worked with no issues this time. So that seemed to fix it for me.

Since my problem is fixed, I'll close this thread out as soon as someone weighs in on the update and whether or the devs decide to go ahead on it.
Cheers!

Hi @geeksailor The reason for this error is because the version you had installed during the process was 5.8.8, but the SaltStack installation had wanted to install 5.6.8, and this technically is considered a downgrade. As such, in order for this to work properly, the "allow-downgrade" option would have to be set, which it's not. We do not have it set in the state because we don't want users to have to downgrade in order to use REMnux. Additionally, there is no native option in SaltStack to set the "allow-downgrade" flag to the command.

However, since you've identified the version as being out of date, I'll submit a PR for an updated version of it this weekend.

Cheers!

Hi @geeksailor Just checking in to see if your installation was successful after the PR for Radare2 was released.

Hey @digitalsleuth,
Sorry I kinda disappeared. Works picked up quite a bit and been keeping my busier than usual which is good. But the downside being that I've barely had any time as of lately to test or play with Remnux for the past few months. I do think I played around with it some more but I can not remember if the install was successful or not. I'll break out my copy this weekend and check and see if I did in fact work and let you know.
Cheers!
