Why is PlasticSCM still using ancient versions of SQLite/Firebird embedded + ADO.NET providers?

Just checked the latest 5.4 linux server zip and the included SQLite ADO.NET provider version is 1.0.65, while firebird is 2.1.2.

Both version are from around 2008/09, so they are not only 5 years old, they are both discontinued and not officially supported anymore.

 

Currently Firebird ADO.NET provider is at 4.5.1.0 and SQLite at 1.0.94.

 

So can u please update your shipped third party libs to something more recent?

This is not just a matter of having the "latest" lib, but both libs got countless security/compatibility and critical fixes in the last 5 years. You should not use those ancient versions in a production environment, so either remove the support for them or keep them updated at a half decent rate, like once/twice a year or on any "recommend" upgrade from the official developers.

 

Thx

Andy
