= Proposed System Wide Change: OpenLDAP without Non-threaded Libraries = https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OpenLDAPwithoutNonthreadedLibraries
Owner(s): * Matus Honek <mhonek at redhat dot com> OpenLDAP will not ship non-threaded version of libldap. Instead, libldap will be built with the same threading support as libldap_r. == Detailed description == After this change the non-threaded version of libldap will not be shipped any more. Instead, this library will rather be built the same way as the threaded libldap_r. This has been previously discussed in Bugzilla [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1370065] and other distributions where this change already happened. Upstream still supports non-threaded version of their library as it might be used on processors where threads are not supported. However, when these two versions happen to be loaded at the same time (as discussed about Curl in the Bugzilla) symbol names overlap which may result in unpredictable behaviour. Immediate solution would be to symlink libldap to libldap_r, however SONAME of the library would be the same, hence breaking dependencies of other packages. For that reason the solution hereby proposed should be the most convenient one. == Scope == * Proposal owners: update SPEC file so that non-threaded libldap is replaced with threaded one. * Other developers: None. Issues should not occur. * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7253] ** List of deliverables: N/A * Policies and guidelines: None. * Trademark approval: (not needed for this Change) -- Jan Kuřík JBoss EAP Program Manager Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkynova 99/71, 612 45 Brno, Czech Republic _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/LFKEVSXVGIC5RRFAJ4ECV3QBRB3X5TGA/
