If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. You are blatantly breaking API in Fedora 28: Overview of changes between 0.19.7 and 1.0 ============================================= * Full isolate and parenthesis support as per Unicode 6.3 to Unicode 10.0 . * To get access to the new algorithm calls to the function `fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels()` must be replaced with calls to `fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels_ex()`. These function are not API compatible. Calling the older function will use default values for the new bracket properties and will sometimes yield non-complient results. (In reply to Petr Pisar from comment #7) > You are blatantly breaking API in Fedora 28: I don't think this is true. > * To get access to the new algorithm calls to the function > `fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels()` must be replaced with calls to > `fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels_ex()`. That is, if you're a software developer and want to access the new functionality (new features of Unicode 6.3), you need the new API. > These function are not API compatible. Read: The new function has a different API than the old one. The old one is still available with the same signature. https://github.com/fribidi/fribidi/releases says: "Because of changes to the algorithm, the previous API have been deprecated in favor of a new API that introduces another couple of parameters. But the old API has been retained, and will return the same results as before these algorithmic changes." If it where compatible, it would not break existing code <https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=124618>. Well, I'm developing BiDi code right now using fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels(), and it works fine both with 0.19.7 and 1.0.5. You're saying over here that it's "blatantly breaking API", quoting below its changelog stating it did not break it. In the CPAN bug you say "Text-Bidi tests fail [...] The reason is that fribidi-1.0 deprecated fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels()" as if the word "deprecate" meant "remove". I understand that there's a problem with the large ecosystem, perhaps the Perl binding not scanning through all the header files or intentionally skipping the functions annotated as deprecated, but it's not fribidi itself to blame. Please consider to include "fribidi-deprecated.h" in the perl code. I think the fribidi_get_par_embedding_levels function has been moved to the fribidi-deprecated.h header file. |
