Spec URL: http://spot.fedoraproject.org/v8-314.spec SRPM URL: http://spot.fedoraproject.org/v8-314-3.14.5.10-1.fc24.src.rpm Description: V8 is Google's open source JavaScript engine. V8 is written in C++ and is used in Google Chrome, the open source browser from Google. V8 implements ECMAScript as specified in ECMA-262, 3rd edition. This is version 3.14, which is no longer maintained by Google, but was adopted by a lot of other software.

+1 for a v8-314 package. The 3.14 API is the de-facto standard for building software that links against libv8. The 4.x and 5.x series have a completely different API. As a maintainer of software that uses V8, breaking compatibility by upgrading v8 on Fedora/EPEL would be devastating to us. We would basically have to rewrite all software from scratch. We really appreciate the effort to provide a v8-314 package. PS: I think the URL needs to point to fedorapeople.org instead of fedoraproject.org.

Thank you so much Tom and Zuzana! This is going to make a lot of R users on Fedora / EL very happy!
v8-314 is in rawhide/f25. I'm rebuilding v8 for all active branches (el6, el7, f23, f24) to add Provides for v8-314.
