= System Wide Change: OpenLDAP without Non-threaded Libraries = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OpenLDAPwithoutNonthreadedLibraries Change owner(s): * Matus Honek <mhonek AT redhat DOT com> OpenLDAP will not ship non-threaded versions of its libraries. Instead, it will link these to their threaded counterparts. == Detailed Description == After this change the non-threaded versions of OpenLDAP libraries will not be shipped any more. Instead, these file will rather symlink to their threaded representatives (i.e. libldap -> libldap_r, etc.). This has been previously discussed in [Bugzilla] and other distributions where this change already happened. Upstream still supports non-threaded versions of their libraries as these might be used on processors where threads are not supported. However, when these two versions happen to be loaded at the same time (as discussed about Curl in the Bugzilla [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1370065]) symbol names overlap which may result in unpredictable behaviour. As the most convenient solution arises the one proposed hereby. == Scope == * Proposal owners: update SPEC file so that some files are not shipped and replaced with appropriate symlinks. * Other developers: None. Issues should not occur. * Release engineering: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7253 * List of deliverables: N/A * Policies and guidelines: None. * Trademark approval: (not needed for this Change) -- Jan Kuřík Platform & Fedora Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
