@clolov Thank you for the PR! That seems a tricky one. Actually, we cannot simply remove methods from that class. It is true that they are not used within our code base. However, the options are directly exposed to the users as public APIs via `RocksDBConfigSetter`. If we just remove some methods, we might break backwards compatibility. What alternatives do we have? 1. RocksDB 7.1.2 seems to be the earliest RocksDB version that uses the fixed zlib library 1.2.12. We could ask RocksDB developers if they could release a 6.29.x with zlib 1.2.12. 2. We could not delete the methods, not forward the calls and log a warn message. 3. We could break backwards compatibility since fixing a CVE might be of higher priority. What else? \cc @ableegoldman -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
