Owner

No explicit ABI/API or build-system breaking changes were identified in the reviewed upstream notes. However, this package is network-facing and ships binaries plus shared libraries, so NiceOS should treat it as security-relevant and require a clean build and smoke test before merge.

Decision: manual_review
Risk level: medium

Requested checks:

clean mock/rpmbuild build in NiceOS 5.2
verify lookaside source hash, metadata, and SBOM refresh
confirm no new BuildRequires/Requires are needed
run basic wireshark/tshark smoke tests on representative PCAPs
confirm devel package file lists and library paths remain correct
