Hi,
It's for netdata package and specifically for the cloud registration
feature. So netdata is working fine without this feature but a lot of
users claim this feature.
All bundled libs are static, so there is no additional .so file
installed (neither fedora nor epel repos).
We're talking about libwebsockets (min 3.2.2 and epel provides 3.0.1)
and a "patched" version of mosquitto
For fedora package, it's working with libwebsockets from system, but not
mosquitto.
For epel, I have to use bundled libs (for both) otherwise, it's not working.
Best Regards,
Didier FABERT.

Bundled libraries are permitted as long as they do not conflict with
system libraries.
In your case, it does not happen in Fedora but in EPEL it does; so i
would advice you to use a private lib directory in EPEL where
bundled .so libraries (generally unversioned libraries) will be installed.
See

Of which libraries are we talking about?

Hi,
Yes the guidelines are clear for fedora. I miss tell that the
package is
present in fedora and epel repos and my question is more like this:
Is it possible to mix bundled/system libs ? like using system libs
(the
must part in guidelines) for fedora packages and use bundled one for
epel packages (because libs are too old)
That's a much more interesting question :)
The first line of the main EPEL guidelines[1] says that you must
follow the Fedora packaging guidelines and that the EPEL links are for
the exceptions for EPEL.
So if the library is not available in EPEL, then I would say the
answer is yes, you can use the bundled library (even if you're not on
Fedora).
For the 2nd question, can you use them if the ones in EPEL/RHEL are
too old, I'd like to see more feedback from others. Theoretically
dependencies in EPEL could be updated, but it has to be done very
carefully. For RHEL packages, I tried filling a bug about 6 years ago
and as far as I know it's still open, with little to no feedback from RH.
