I have had requests for mongodb 2.2.0 for Fedora 17, as well as EPEL 6 and 5. I am going to build for those tomorrow and let things sit in testing for at least a week (2 weeks for EPEL). The only concern I have received thus far is whether packages will need to be rebuilt against the new mongodb 2.2. From everything I have looked at, the answer is no. The API's should be backward compatible. The libraries provided are the same name, there is no increase in number. $ rpm -qp --provides libmongodb-2.0.7-2.fc18.x86_64.rpm libmongoclient.so()(64bit) libmongodb = 2.0.7-2.fc18 libmongodb(x86-64) = 2.0.7-2.fc18 $ rpm -qp --provides libmongodb-2.2.0-6.fc18.x86_64.rpm libmongoclient.so()(64bit) libmongodb = 2.2.0-6.fc18 libmongodb(x86-64) = 2.2.0-6.fc18 Thank You Troy Dawson -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
