Homebrew [PSA] Many homebrew applications will no longer work with Github as of tomorrow

[MikaDubbz]

Looks like we'll have to manually update things then. Not the biggest of deals especially for things like Luma, considering that doesn't update often these days.

 

[SaberLilly]

well this is unfortunate. Hopefully devs can find a way to mitigate this problem, not that I have that big an issue with manually updating things

R.I.P

Well this sucks.

Is the only solution to this creating a middleman server that supports TLSv1/1.1, and forwarding the requests so the 3DS can download from the middleman?

No. That won't work, SSL is used to prevent that. And even if you could it'd take the S(security) out of SSL.

You may not but 75% of the people that followed plailects guide will

We use a WAF to protect our older servers running SSL 3.0 since they don't support TLS 1.2 but since we have the private key for the cert on the WAF we are able to do a middleman setup for it.

No.

but I think it could be possible by using mbedTLS and libcurl?

LOL, is that why I'm getting SSL errors with Cydia on my iPhone? It's only the github repos.

lol same

 

[SirNapkin1334]

Nooo. This will be annoying. Biggest problem will probably be updating CTGP-7 and TitleDB. I hope someone finds a workaround.

Does this mean that any newer games wont be released on freeshop? But it still will be possible to download games that are in the current library?

No, to both. It just means that any homebrew app you have will have to be updated manually.

No, to both. It just means that any homebrew app you have will have to be updated manually.

Which includes the freeshop cache and not many people know how to do that since there are no instructions anywhere, you have to figure it out yourself from the source code.

 

[PowerBall253]

So now, I will have to update things manually. This sucks.

Here's hoping Luma gets an update to fix this. If I am correct it should be possible to fix with cfw if someone had the know how to do it. I certainly don't.

It is, but the library doesn't even exist yet. It's just example code for curl right now

 

[teelo]

ELI5 this TLS1.1 thing. Why are they removing it? Security holes?

Here's hoping Luma gets an update to fix this. If I am correct it should be possible to fix with cfw if someone had the know how to do it. I certainly don't.

If you meant Luma Updater, there's a fix in the works, but I can't test that fix until the service goes down.

I meant more like a cfw patch of some sort that could universally fix it rather than each homebrew having to implement their own fixes. I don't even know how possible that would be, if at all.
