Old tests on libosinfo were relying on libsoup and that's the reason I do believe the dependency was there. Pino dropped the dependency a long time ago here: ``` commit b61be0405f678986ac344f414fa907af24670488 Author: Pino Toscano <[email protected]> AuthorDate: Mon Aug 7 18:18:34 2017 +0200 Commit: Christophe Fergeau <[email protected]> CommitDate: Mon Oct 16 11:12:22 2017 +0200 Switch from libsoup to libcurl libsoup is used to check the validity of URLs in distributions in osinfo-db; OTOH it supports only HTTP(S), so this limits the checks to that protocol. To overcome this limitation, switch to libcurl: while it requires slightly more code to do the same task, it provides a bit more flexibility, and support for other protocols. No version check is performed, since the APIs used are old enough. Adapt also the README, and the packaging files. ``` However, libvirt-jenkins-ci was never updated.
