Description Felix Homann 2015-11-18 10:18:38 UTC
(Named this after the upstream bug report)

The lo_cpp.h shipped in the Fedora package contains out of class definitions that should be inlined. The bug has been fixed upstream in August, see the discussion here:

https://github.com/radarsat1/liblo/issues/23

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

0.28, Release 1.fc23

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2016-11-24 13:32:37 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 23 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 23. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '23'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 23 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Felix Homann 2016-11-25 09:00:57 UTC
This is still not fixed in Fedora 24.

Comment 3 Fedora End Of Life 2017-07-25 19:31:04 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 24 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 2 (two) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 24. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '24'.

I reported this issue almost 2 years ago. Upstream fixed it more than 2 years ago [1]. Why does it not get fixed?

Comment 5 Felix Homann 2017-08-11 16:55:00 UTC
Version 0.29 of liblo has been released today. So would you please package the new version? It includes the fixes for the out of class definitions.

See here:

https://github.com/radarsat1/liblo/releases/tag/0.29

Comment 6 Felix Homann 2017-08-31 07:21:55 UTC
Just to make it perfectly clear: The C++ interface of liblo as packaged for Fedora is broken! It is broken for more than 2 years!

Shipping those broken headers is not only completely useless but also leads to unexpected behaviour of liblo. It is totally irresponsible to keep shipping those headers! It is even more irresponsible to ship them while the fix is so simple and upstream fixed it more than 2 years ago. 

If you don't want to package the new version of liblo for whatever reason you have, please, at least backport the fix for this issue.

Comment 7 Brendan Jones 2017-08-31 07:44:54 UTC
The severity of this issue hardly justifies your tone. These functions should be inlined anyway.

FYI IPV6 support is broken in 0.29 and will need to be addressed before updating. I will address it when I can. Other wise feel free to take on the responsibility yourself. I welcome comaintainers

Comment 8 Brendan Jones 2017-08-31 08:54:18 UTC
I have backported the fix in rawhide

Comment 9 Felix Homann 2017-08-31 09:36:48 UTC
Sorry, Brendan, but IMHO the severity of this issue hardly justified your 2 years of complete silence, either ;-)

I'm very happy I finally got a response from you and I'm even more happy that you finally backported the fix!


Thank you,
Felix
