--- Comment #4 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- >From IRC: > _rene_: mikekaganski: the problem is thst people forced othe people to use 4.0.. i saud thst to our firebird maintainer back then... > _rene_: mikekaganski: and that lo relues on an old version. but that problem will maybe exist on 4.0 vs. 5.0 too :/ > mikekaganski: _rene_: my question is: what could be a problem, if we always bundle our own build of FB embedded .so, irrespective of the system FB? > _rene_: for hsqldb i keep hsqldb1.8.0 around fir infinity for this reason, but i am nit the firebird maintainer... > _rene_: mikekaganski: that it's a bundlee version and that should be avoided in principle if posdible > _rene_: and then there is the problem of srchitecture support > mikekaganski: _rene_: the "if possible" is the problem :-) I understan why it is undesirable in general; my question is about a specific situation, that has its root in how FB handles its file versions > _rene_: are you going to fix any arch? by using it from the systfm you relay that to firebird ;) > _rene_: https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libreoffice. ignore mios64el and i am not sure about s390x > _rene_: but loong64 will come sooner or later > mikekaganski sees the last argument, it's really critical > noel_grandin: maybe just disable firebird if the system version is wrong? > _rene_: besides that the white ones need to work (or firebird disabled...) > _rene_: and have no internal db at all? > _rene_: there is archs where hsqldb is disabled too > _rene_: because java is disabled bevause either not ecisting or broken > _rene_: of the archs above, only a subset has java support > _rene_: ure-java | 4:25.8.0-1 | unstable | > amd64, arm64, i386, riscv64 > _rene_: mikekaganski: this is a mess. i'd have preferrred out firebird mainer keeping a 3.0 -dev, but he didn't > _rene_: and libfbembed2 from 4.0 needs 4.0-server-core > _rene_: so i was forced to built agaimst 4.0 without resorting to the internal one :/ > _rene_: *if* one forces internal fb > _rene_: we need a --disable/--without switch. then people might get no internal db tbough. no hsqldb, no fb > _rene_: :-( > _rene_: mikekaganski: ftr, > https://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2025/01/thrd2.html. look for firebird -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
