(Nicolas and Karel were CC'ed too) I'm sorry if you didn't get it. :( I was waiting OpenCV folks decision about the soname issue, hoping that they stick to a saner soname policy. But then i was busy with job interviews. I've just moved in and started my new job this week. Anyway, since OpenCV brutally removed autotools support from svn [1], we have no other choice than moving to cmake. As OpenCV 2 has never been shipped into a stable release, pushing the change now will avoid us struggling with soname issues later in stable releases (unless upstream decides to break stuff again). OpenCV 1.x was nothing more than a glorified "beta" (if not alpha) for Intel, OpenCV 2.x is expected to be a little more stable. By itself, the move to cmake is no problem: it's well maintained (issues with sse are fixed for instance), the libdir patch was done, and no problems with chrooted builds. If I could, i would have rebuilt myself the packages to avoid that annoyance to fellow maintainers. H. [1] it was supposed to be maintained at least during the whole 2.0.x branch life. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
