It's not a critpath update, so it can be pushed stable with no feedback after seven days - see the note This update has reached 7 days in testing and can be pushed to stable now if the maintainer wishes - and it was indeed pushed after that time. It's possible the maintainer tested it, but you can't tell that from the Bodhi page. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

This is not limited to software from the F14 repo, but also self compiled applications that worked fine previously on F13. The above version also has the same problem.

A downgrade for F14 to 2.30.x, however rawhide(F15) probably needs to move to 2.90.x. Which is the GTK3 branch of libgdl. Anjuta is broken on F14. I don't know if any other apps in the F14 repo use libgdl. I'm not familiar with the internal workings of libgdl, however I use libgdl for a couple of my own applications. I think I can tell whether or not the problem is my own application. The upstream bug report I referenced before includes a response from the Anjuta/libgdl developer, Anyway, gdl 2.31.x is broken and gnome-2-32 will ship gdl 2.30.x.. I'm inclined to trust the upstream developer if he says his app is broken. Regards, Jim H -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel

Well, not responding to bugzilla tickets, sometimes it's a packager's way to signal I don't have time for this and would appreciate if somebody else took over. Dunno whether that is the case for libgdl in Fedora though, but given your interest in libgdl, it would make sense to get involved in the Fedora package maintenance somehow. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
F14 libgdl 2.31.x broken
Any application that uses libgdl on F14 segfaults on startup. I had to downgrade libgdl to 2.30.x in order to get applications using libgdl to work.
