comp-lzo deprication

Post by stuartbh »

Gargoyle users,

It seems that Tunnelblick instantiates the warning as follows hereupon and will in the future no longer be honoring the comp-lzo parameter. Can this be made into a tickable option in the openvpn menu so one can select it or not?

Here is the Tunnelblick warning I get:

This VPN works now, but may not work in a future version of Tunnelblick.

The OpenVPN configuration file for 'client_vpn' should be updated so it can be used with modern versions of OpenVPN. It contains these OpenVPN options:

• 'comp-lzo' was deprecated in OpenVPN 2.4 and has been or may be removed in a later version


Tunnelblick will use OpenVPN 2.5.3 - OpenSSL v1.1.1l to connect this configuration.

However, you will not be able to connect to this VPN with future versions of Tunnelblick that do not include a version of OpenVPN that accepts the options.
Very Respectfully,

I have disabled compression in 1.15.x alphas as per the deprecation notice.
Support is still compiled into the image so it can be enabled if needed, but the default will no longer enable it.

Please be respectful when posting. I do this in my free time on a volunteer basis.
