Re: [Evolution-hackers] Removing libdb from EDS source

2008-04-24 Thread Srinivasa Ragavan
Ross,

IIRC, it was done because, every libdb update broke Evolution or libdb
wasn't so stable release over release. Also OpenSUSE uses statically
linked libdb. But most of the hackers I know, dynamically link libdb.
I'm favor of the change. But lemme ping some old evolution hackers who
were part of this change, to understand what they feel about it.

[Evolution-hackers] Removing libdb from EDS source

2008-04-24 Thread Ross Burton
Hi,

I think that we should remove the fork of Berkeley DB from the Evolution
Data Server source.  Debian, Ubuntu, Gentoo and Fedora all use
--with-libdb to dynamically link to a system library, so it is known to
work.

This would involve removing libdb from svn, and always dynamically
linking to libdb instead.  --with-libdb would still exist for people who
want to use a custom libdb, but it would default to /usr.

Thoughts?

Ross
