Another week, another rebuild. This time it is the update to db-5. It looks like the big version jump is due to adding new features rather than API changes, but I need to investigate further.
What are your plans? My quad feels cold...
Well... I am still figuring things out. Looking at the API changes from 4.8->5.0, it seems this should not be a hard rebuild... We are going to need a 'db4' package as some things on the rebuild list probably should not be updated to db5 yet. I believe Jan wants evolution-data-server to stay built against db4.8 and I would prefer python to do so too (until upstream OKs it). So my plan is: 1) update db to 5.0 2) upload db4 package 3) post message telling everyone using [testing] to install db4 (with --asdep) 4) start rebuilds - these can be done slowly due to the db4 package and I recommend maintainers decide what gets updated to db5 or not. Expect db4 and updated db to hit the repos soon. Allan
