Apparently, I forgot to include bugzilla number in the commit message and will correct it asap. Since this is just a temporary revert, I don't think the FPC exception is applicable for this case. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1043965 rsync 3.1.1 just released, this version contains support for non-bundled zlib:
"
Added support for a new-compression idiom that does not compress all the
matching data in a transfer. This can help rsync to use less cpu when a
transfer has a lot of matching data, and also makes rsync compatible with
a non-bundled zlib. See the --new-compress and --old-compress options in
the manpage.
"
We have to wait for wider adoption of rsync>3.1.1, since 3.1.1 compiled with system zlib is not able to use compression during file transfer with older versions. This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle. Changing version to '22'. More information and reason for this action is here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Program_Management/HouseKeeping/Fedora22 This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. Just a note that bundling is no longer a problem in Fedora according to a recent policy change. However, the rsync package does really need to have Provides: bundled(zlib) = 1.2.8 so that we can track security problems across bundled versions. I can just go ahead and do this in Rawhide if you like. Fedora 22 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2016-07-19. Fedora 22 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 25 development cycle. Changing version to '25'. This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database. Reassigning to the new owner of this component. To update the new maintainer on this issue, Fedora no longer disallows bundling, but still makes mandatory the use of Provides: bundled(zlib) = 1.2.8 (or whatever the actual bundled version is). That doesn't seem to be done currently. It's just a matter of adding that and an explanatory comment. I'm happy to just do it for you (in rawhide) and rebuild if you like. Thanks Jason, I will do that. |
