I am the new volunteer maintainer of the orphaned xalan-c package (Xalan XSLT processor for C/C++). On 2020-12-08, I plan to submit a build of the new upstream version, 1.12.0, to Rawhide. Those interested may already inspect the new spec file in Pagure, and a Koji scratch build is available at https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=56532547.
Because the ABI will change (so-version changes from 111 to 112), the following packages will need to be rebuilt. I will forward this notice directly to their maintainers. libdigidocpp – maintained by germano xml-security-c – maintained by kloczek The new release brings the following significant changes to the Fedora package: - Source code signature verification - New CMake build system - Enable new optional ICU dependency - Build API documentation with Doxygen It will also resolve the following outstanding bugs: xalan-c: New upstream release 1.12 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1900893 xalan-c: FTBFS in Fedora rawhide/f33 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1865631 I am also happy to report that we no longer need to carry a 6000+ line patch! Note that the -devel packages now include pkg-config and CMake module files. The upstream changelog for the new release is available at: https://github.com/apache/xalan-c/releases/tag/Xalan-C_1_12_0 _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
