Summary: Merge Review: neon https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=226189 ------- Additional Comments From jorton@xxxxxxxxxx 2007-04-27 10:44 EST ------- It's not actually relevant whether or not I can give examples of apps which break if the .la file is removed. The point is that doing so breaks an interface which is defined upstream (`neon-config --la-file`). It is a golden rule of packaging that you do not break interfaces defined upstream. But, examples I know of: Subversion, which uses --la-file to link against neon, and I think also the static build of RPM (at least upstream), which IIRC on libtool resolving dependencies via the .la file -- exactly what .la files are designed for. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
