hmmm...i have it running on 23.05.0
Dropped?
It has just failed to build for some architectures in 23.05.
You should check the fail logs before claiming that something was intentionally dropped...
E.g.
https://downloads.openwrt.org/releases/faillogs-23.05/arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16/packages/freeradius3/
Package freeradius3-common is missing dependencies for the following libraries:
libpcre.so.1
make[3]: *** [Makefile:775: /builder/shared-workdir/build/sdk/bin/packages/arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16/packages/freeradius3-common_3.0.26-2_arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3-d16.ipk] Error 1
And packages repo source logs shows that freeradius was fixed yesterday to build also when libpcre is present. So, after the next buildbot round the downloadable package should again be there.

Got it. I just looked at the manifests, saw it hadn't been there for a few months and made the incorrect assumption that it was abandoned. (Even worse, I did in fact read Jeffery's commit and it just completely passed in one eye and out the other.)
I whipped up a script that checks for broken package builds, compares them to what you have installed and tells you if an auc upgrade will succeed (I hope it does, anyhow 
).
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/efahl/tools/main/src/pkg-scan.sh
If you download that to your router, and run it like this:
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/efahl/tools/main/src/pkg-scan.sh
$ chmod +x pkg-scan.sh
$ ./pkg-scan.sh -d -f -v --version-to 23.05.2
it should show you the currently broken packages for your device, and an indicator as to whether that will cause an issue. Here's example output on my RT3200, take note of the "package build failures" section, where we see that cloudflared and wifidog are currently broken on in 23.05.2 for that device.
$ ./pkg-scan.sh -d -f -v --version-to 23.05.2

A monumental step to making firstboot setup go smoothly. Works like a charm.
