Taking ownership of the orphaned packages: bytelist, jcodings, jvyamlb
by Victor Vasilyev 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

Hi All, The NetBeans 6.8 [1] depends on some Java libraries whose packages have been marked as orphaned [2]. To resolve the issue and provide the feature in-time I'd like to take ownership of the following packages: - bytelist - Review Request #560169 [3] - jcodings - Review Request #560170 [4] - jvyamlb - Review Request #560172 [5] The spec files are updated and new SRPMs are prepared according to the current states of the corresponding projects. BTW Updating the packages is a step to reanimate JRuby on the Fedora platform.

best practice for packing programs that use strlcpy()?
by Eric Smith 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

What is considered the best practice for packaging a program that uses strlcpy()? Is there a Fedora library that provides strlcpy() and friends? Should I add an implmentation of strlcpy() to the package as an additional source or patch? Should I modify the program to not need strlcpy()? (I really don't like this idea.) Thanks, Eric
