Jansson (a JSON library) in Rawhide is out of date compared to
upstream. The latest version in Rawhide is jansson-2.13.1-10.fc42 and
the latest upstream is 2.14 (released 3 years ago).
I am planning to update this assuming no objections. But the update
isn't completely straightforward as they introduced symbol versioning
upstream and I suspect this will break any existing users.
[But also, the reason I want to update is _because_ of symbol
versioning. We are modifying libguestfs to change from Jansson to
json-c, but they share a common symbol (json_object_get) and without
symbol versioning, if you mix programs using the two libraries it can
(always? randomly?) call the wrong function. I think with both
libraries using symbol versioning this cannot happen.]
I think the list of packages that need to be rebuilt is:
$ dnf repoquery --qf '%{NAME}' '--disablerepo=*' '--enablerepo=*-source' --arch=src --whatrequires jansson-devel | sort -u
asterisk
binutils
certmonger
cjose
cptutils
ctags
cyrus-imapd
dmlite
emacs
freeipa
guestfs-tools
HandBrake
jose
libgamerzilla
libguestfs
libjwt
libnftnl
libteam
mod_auth_openidc
mod_md
mtr
NetworkManager
network-manager-applet
nftables
obs-studio
obs-studio-freeworld
opendnssec
plotnetcfg
proxmark3
rng-tools
samba
sssd
suricata
unrealircd
uwsgi
vdr-epg2vdr
vdr-epg-daemon
vdr-osd2web
vdr-tvscraper
vdr-weatherforecast
virt-v2v
yara
Some big hitters in there like binutils, emacs & samba.
I will attempt this in a side tag.
Let me know if any problems or objections here.
Rich.
