Hello,

We would like to use a version of gfal2-plugin-xrootd built against xrootd 4 for EL5 and EL6. Does anyone know if there are plans to build and release version 0.3 (or 0.3.pre1) for EL5 & EL6?

(The version available in EL7 is built against xrootd 4, but EL5 & EL6 are built against xrootd 3.)


More details:

It looks like the current version available in EPEL for EL5 & EL6 is 0.2.2-2:

        http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=420560
        http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=420579

from May 2013. Since this version was built against xrootd 3, we're not able to install it along with xrootd 4. Also, attempting to rebuild this version (0.2.2-2) fails both against the latest version of gfal2 and against xrootd 4.

But I see that there is a newer version 0.3.pre1-2 available for EL7:

        https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1140171
        http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=576482

It looks like this version addresses the build issues and we can rebuild it in EL5 & EL6 against the latest gfal2 and xrootd 4.

I'm wondering if there are plans for EPEL to update to & release the new version of gfal2-plugin-xrootd in EL5 & EL6 also (so we can get it directly from EPEL). And if not, is this something EPEL would consider?

Thanks!
Carl
