Description Filip Januš 2022-03-02 17:22:17 UTC
Since there is a long-term effort to remove all libdb dependencies I would like to find out solution also for libpinyin.

Libdb was marked as deprecated in Fedora by change[2] and it was also deprecated in RHEL9[1]. Libdb is currently many many years without any update. So it`s quite old code without upstream support.

Comment 1 Ben Cotton 2022-08-09 13:13:31 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 37 development cycle.
Changing version to 37.

Comment 2 Peng Wu 2023-08-30 05:38:12 UTC
The libpinyin package switches to use Kyoto Cabinet in Fedora rawhide.

Comment 3 Parag Nemade 2024-02-19 03:00:30 UTC
This switch is done since F39 release in build libpinyin-2.8.1-5.fc39
