Description Jose Pedro Oliveira 2011-11-24 19:57:12 UTC
Till,

Would it be possible to also build libHX for EPEL6?

Regards,
jpo

I do not have any CentOS6 system, therefore I am still hesitant in maintaining EPEL6 packages. Are you a maintainer and would consider co-maintaining it for EPEL6? And for what reason do you need it?

Yes and yes.

> And for what reason do you need it?

In the next months I need to develop a couple of proof-of-concepts C network daemons and I will need a good C support library, most likely libHX and/or glib2
(but I'm still gathering info).

PS - Are you planning to update libHX to a more recent version?

Do you still need libHX on EPEL6? You need to apply for co-maintainerhip in pkgdb, so I can add you there.
