Notice of upgrading xalan-c to 1.12.0 in Rawhide

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

 



I am the new volunteer maintainer of the orphaned xalan-c package (Xalan XSLT processor for C/C++). On 2020-12-08, I plan to submit a build of the new upstream version, 1.12.0, to Rawhide. Those interested may already inspect the new spec file in Pagure, and a Koji scratch build is available at https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=56532547.

Because the ABI will change (so-version changes from 111 to 112), the following packages will need to be rebuilt. I will forward this notice directly to their maintainers.

libdigidocpp – maintained by germano
xml-security-c – maintained by kloczek

The new release brings the following significant changes to the Fedora package:

- Source code signature verification
- New CMake build system
- Enable new optional ICU dependency
- Build API documentation with Doxygen

It will also resolve the following outstanding bugs:

xalan-c: New upstream release 1.12
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1900893

xalan-c: FTBFS in Fedora rawhide/f33
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1865631

I am also happy to report that we no longer need to carry a 6000+ line patch!

Note that the -devel packages now include pkg-config and CMake module files.

The upstream changelog for the new release is available at:
