[arch-dev-public] iodbc Vs unixodbc, are they compatible?
Hi DEVs, me and Pierre are building KDE 4.4 packages, but to provide the soprano virtuoso backend we need the iODBC driver that conflicts with unixODBC. The unixODBC in [extra] is required by 9 packages. We don't know if these two drivers are API compatible, so there is anyone that knows if we can replace unixodbc with iodbc? If they are, we could add provides=('odbc') or 'odbc-driver' to both PKGBUILDs. Thanks -- Andrea `bash` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

Looks like there is nor real need for a conflict. I'll push a non-conflicting libiodbc package to kde-unstable soon. -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre

2010/1/11 Pierre Schmitz <pierre@archlinux.de>: these files are in both: /usr/include/odbcinst.h /usr/include/sql.h /usr/include/sqltypes.h /usr/include/sqlucode.h /usr/lib/libodbc.so I saw the apr-util-iodbc in AUR, but it doesn't fully work as explained in this[1] bug report. So seems they are not API compatible. [1] https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47879 -- Andrea `bash` Scarpino Arch Linux Developer

[1] https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47879 forgot it. with libiodbc everything is fine.

Yes, I just finished uploading of new libiodbc, virtuoso and soprano. The iodbc package was just "not optimal". -- Pierre Schmitz, https://users.archlinux.de/~pierre
