I was asking Wart to update java wfut package to new native libwfut:

But he is not reachable or too busy to look at it now.
The only package that has dependency on wfut is sear (WorldForge
client). It hadn't updated for some time, but CVS versions of it are
using libwfut.
Could somebody take a look on it and say what is needed to get this
package updated?
Sorry I've been a bit mute lately. Staffing changes at work have
decreased the amount of time I've been able to devote to Fedora lately.
The current wfut package provides a single binary executable that is
used by sear. If I recall correctly, the new upstream wfut package
provides a shared library that is linked into applications like ember
and the CVS version of sear. These two packages should be able to be
installed at the same time with no conflicts.
The conflict is in that wfut binary. libwfut also providing it as a
simple command line client. However, it is possible to rename it in to,
say, 'wfut-cmd' or strip it.
Since the new wfut is a
completely new codebase, I would propose that we create a new 'libwfut'
package, which will be used by ember. sear can continue to use the
existing wfut package until upstream makes a new release, at which time
it will change to use libwfut and we can obsolete the wfut package.
Okay. I'll try to make package that takes this into account and submit
it for review as new.
Alex.
