B> Hello Roland,

yes.

That setting has a different effect: srp_daemon won't even be started if
PORTS=NONE. The PORTS variable just controls for which ports of the HCA(s)
a daemon is started. On the other hand, in the config file you have
additional control over the targets that will be added to the system.

The new package is very new, sits in debian unstable and most likely
hasn't made it to Ubuntu 17.04.
Cheers,
