Hi, According to upstream web server, GNS3 current version is 2.2.11 https://github.com/GNS3/gns3-gui/releases/tag/v2.2.11 Therefore, current version in Mageia 7 is also in a nonfree repo but not found in Cauldron. Assigning this package request to all packagers collectively. On a voluntary basis, one of them might, if there are no license or other legal issues, want to integrate it to the distribution and maintain it for bug and security fixes.

Yes, it looks as if gns3 has been dropped for Mageia 8; so a new package request looks a good way to get it back - up-to-date! I notice that our package URL is wrong: http://www.gns3.net is dead, it is now https://www.gns3.com/

Ah. Thanks. Checking the source file, it has ... GNS3 is released under the GPLv3 (see LICENSE) with the additional exemption that compiling, linking, and/or using OpenSSL is allowed.
Hi, Yes, it would be fantastic to have the last version of GNS3 on Mageia8 (gns3-gui & gns3-server)
