I tried to point out the issues and ask for what to do here:
http://rpm5.org/community/rpm-devel/3396.html
There are two resolutions that I see to the issue(s) atm:
1) make internal lua MANDATORY (hwich will cause the usual Bloat!
cries)
2) add lua/* helper libraries to rpmio/ rather than misc/
I'd like to hear consensus before thrashing around in the AutoFu.
FWIW, MANDATORY pcre has been achieved with a rpm-5.1.7 build from
tarball
IFF the following restrictions are met:
1) external pcre (with the regcomp emulation renamed ala Debian et al)
2) internal lua is used
Building from CVS, the "jbj" configuration in devtool.conf WORKSFORME
on both
HEAD and the -r rpm-4_1 branch. Re-tagging pcre for the -r rpm-5_1
branch can
be done whenever.Support for additional configurations are currently waiting for consensus on
the proper approach to resolution.AFAIK, MANDATORY pcre has been achieved, and other issues like internal <-> external
are resolvable. hth 73 de Jeff
