Summary: Review Request: cernlib-g77 - General purpose CERN library and associated binaries https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237579 ------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-05-13 14:54 EST ------- You mean you'd like the cernlib package to be named compat-cernlib-2006-g77-2006-9 ??? There is no specific binary incompatibility between the different cernlib versions, and there may be binary incompatibility within a version. Moreover the binary incompatibilities are in the sonames. This is very unlike a compiler where the version may be meaningful in term of binary incompatibility. Given the nature of the cernlib since it is not actively developed anymore, the binary incompatibility could certainly only come from the packaging. As a side note, in fact the current cernlib-g77 is binary incompatible with the previous version -- not only because of the use of gfortran -- but also because some code has been removed because it was already in other libs. I haven't changed the soname already because I was waiting for the debian move, seems that it has happened. So it seems that you are somehow right that I will need a compat package, and I'll certainly call it compat-cernlib-2005-g77-2006-9 but it will be in another submission... -- 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 [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
