            Bug ID: 2432587
           Summary: Review Request: bstring - A string abstraction data
                    type for the C language
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux

Description:
------------
The bstring library provides a string abstraction data type for the C language
as a memory safe alternative to null terminated buffers.

This is a fork of Paul Hsieh's Better String Library. The following features
(or mis-features, depending on your point of view) are included:

- Build system (Meson+Ninja)
- Updated test suite based on Check
- Add memory profiling with Valgrind to the workflow
- Add continuous integration via GitHub Actions
- Remove C++ wrapper code, returning this to a pure C library
- Documentation generation with Doxygen
- Other various code quality and reliability improvements

Currently this fork should be binary-compatible with the original code.
The only source incompatibility is the removal of the const_bstring type.
Just use const bstring instead.

Background:
-----------
The Netatalk package previously bundled this library. Upstream has now been
made bstring an external dependency. Hence the new package review.
