Please do not use this report to discuss other topics. But to answer your questions, yes, they are provided as patch upstream as well and we try to keep everything synced as much as possible. But they tend to stay behind for some fixes, especially edge cases for crashes or windows support. You can follow the libzip mailing list if you are interested. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-27 21:10:56] oeriksson at mandriva dot com Thanks Pierre, What about the private changes in libzip? Will you be able to sync that with upstream as well? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-27 20:55:35] paj...@php.net There is work being done in libgd.org to bring 2.1.0 out (which should be synced with php). All fixes are done in both libraries (thanks Tabe for taking care of most of them) and many features have made their way. By the way, if the tempo is too slow, you can always give us a hand. I'm not willing to begin again a discussion with the Debian maintainer, I tried many times without success. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-27 20:40:39] oeriksson at mandriva dot com Excuse me for bothering you with petty issues. Why is it the bundled libgd is not in sync with the more "official" libgd as you are the sole upstream maintainer? gd hasn't had a new release since 2007-11-28, and none of the bling-bling found in the bundled libgd has found its way into any official libgd release. There are other bundled libraries. What about them then and private changes? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-27 20:33:12] crrodriguez at opensuse dot org Pierre: is there any summary on what has to be done exactly to sync both libraries so distributions can just ship one copy of libgd ? Maybe all interested parties can hack into it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-27 20:18:51] ras...@php.net Right, so you figured it out. You are talking to Pierre here. He is the upstream maintainer of the library. And the library is a PHP project. Telling us to do a better job pushing changes upstream (to ourselves?) doesn't make much sense. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
