I'm looking for *the best* Qpid client to execute my tests. Searching my minimal Fedora 25 dnf fedora and update repos for qpid packages I find 100 of them. That's quite a large API surface and makes it hard to new adopters to start in the right place.
Some kind of scorecard on each of these libraries would be helpful. * Is the package still maintained? * Is the package the best available or should new users choose another? * Is the package derived directly from an upstream release or is it an artifact of fedora/centos/ubuntu/...? || Package || Arch || Summary || | libqpid-dispatch-devel | i686 | Development files for Qpid Dispatch | |
