libevent-1.4.13 compatbility

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

I am trying to package forked-daapd and it depends on libevent 1.4.13. 
When asking forked-daapd's maintainer about the compatibility with 
libevent2, I've got this into reply:

	libevent2 is not and will not be supported; you need to use
	libevent 1.4.x.

Which I guess means either I'd have to package libevent1 for Fedora 
(which seems to be PITA ... files have same names etc.), or patch 
forked-daapd to use libevent2 and maintain the patch.

What's so horrible about libevent2 that the upstream author won't 
support it? Is it that difficult to make and maintain the patch for 
libevent2 compatiblity?

Non-building experiemntal draft of the package is at 
http://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/forked-daapd-0.14-0.fc15.src.rpm (you 
need also avl package from -testing to build it).

Any ideas?

Best,

MatÄj
