Description of problem: Exiv2 0.26 is available. New version is needed by darktable users because there are various patches that fix crashes with certain kind of cameras, example: Casio
Working on it, will likely import into rawhide later today... and start the task of rebuilding all dependencies.
Thank you Rex
It would be great to have it on Fedora stable releases too :-)
trickier, requires rebuiding of a large number of dependencies. Besides, appears there's at least to 2 dependant packages that fail to build against the latest version, which would be a blocker anyway: libextractor libgexiv2
If worse comes to worse, I could probably make a compat-exiv2-0.25 pkg in the meantime
Got this on f26 today: Problem: cannot install the best update candidate for package kf5-kfilemetadata-5.34.0-1.fc26.x86_64 - nothing provides libexiv2.so.26()(64bit) needed by kf5-kfilemetadata-5.35.0-1.fc26.x86_64 I see exiv2-0.26-4.fc26 in f26-updates-candidate, will this be going to stable? If not, kf5-kfilemetadata will need a rebuild.
Yeah, that build was done (accidentally) against exiv2-0.26, kf5-kfilemetadata-5.34.0-2.fc26 should fix that.
make that kf5-kfilemetadata-5.35.0-2.fc26
Thank you!
can we close this?
yes
