PackageKit soon to include the QPackageKit library, need advice

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

 



Upstream the PackageKit-Qt library binding has been merged into the
PackageKit scm and will be in the next release tarball. This allows us
to keep the libraries in sync and also means QPackageKit gets a lot of
the love that PackageKit gets.

Love includes things like a .pc file, consistent so versioning, make
check integration and also much better integration with upstream.

Now we have two libraries (soon to be three), I'm intending to rename:

PackageKit-libs  -> PackageKit-libs-glib
PackageKit-devel -> PackageKit-glib-devel

This allows us to create PackageKit-libs-qt and PackageKit-qt-devel and
then provide this for other QT and KDE applications to trivially build
against.

Does this conform to fedora naming conventions? I thought it was odd to
have -libs-foo and -foo-devel (switched order) but am trying to copy
convention from other frameworks in the repos.

This will obsolete qpackagekit, and kpackagekit will have to be rebuilt
against PackageKit-qt. This isn't a problem. kpackagekit is heading into
kde svn soon too, as this will be the future long term home of the KDE
bits.

Comments and suggestions welcome. Thanks.

Richard.
