Got a response from the Netgate developer team. There is some kind of internal issue they are looking into whereby the new packages for CE got built on their internal package builder server, but for some reason did not get copied over to the public server so that they were visible to users. Give Netgate a bit of time to work out the problem and get it corrected.
Thanks, Bill, for the Feedback!
20.10.23 EDIT: Still no Update from the Netgate Servers - I took the patched file from here:
and replaced it on my pfsense (restart Snort after that)

Noticed the same. Not sure what's up. I did get confirmation the issue was passed along to the team responsible for the package builder servers.

Look like this issue with the update to _11 is still not fixed.

Yeah, not fixed in CE but is fixed in Plus. Just checked my 23.05.1 production box and the 4.1.6_11 package version is showing available there.
Don't know what exactly is up with the CE RELEASE and CE DEVEL branches not seeing the package update. I can ping my Netgate contact one more time.
Edit Follow-Up: sent another email to my Netgate contact asking for an update. Will post back when I hear something.

Kinda very interesting in these times... edit: There it is.

The 4.1.6_11 version of the Snort package should now be showing up as available for pfSense 2.7 CE users. I can see it on my end.
Still not sure about 2.8 CE development snapshots. That environment is still a bit wonky for me ???

I can confirm that here on 2.7.0!

Great. Still is going to be a while before the update appears in the 2.8 CE snapshots. That branch is currently offline and package builds are suspended as the team merges in some additional FreeBSD 14 stuff. But the corrected package code exists in the branch, and as soon as package building is enabled again the updated Snort package should appear for the 2.8 CE development snapshot branch.

You guys are amazing. Snort is an amazing tool. Remember Airsnort from the late 90s?
