The gearmand package was recently orphaned for all branches. I've taken over maintenance, and Blake and I intend to push the latest upstream gearmand (1.1.8) to Fedora and EPEL 5 and 6.
This will involve an ABI break from the current EPEL libgearmand package (0.14), although no packages in EPEL depend on libgearman or gearmand. In Fedora, the one package that depends on libgearman is the php-pecl-gearman package. In my research, this package should not require a rebuild, since Fedora will only be going from 1.1.2 -> 1.1.8. Generally speaking, our intent with this update is three-fold: - Update gearmand so that we do not have to scramble the ABI breakage if a CVE were to be issued. - Update gearmand to allow for persistent storage. Without this feature, gearmand's functionality is limited. - Update libgearman to allow for the eventual inclusion of php-pecl-gearman in EL6/5. - Ken _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list epel-de...@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel
