Suggested patch

Description of problem:
The readline package in rawhide will be soon updated to new 6.0 release which changes the license to GPLv3+. As coda is GPLv2, it should be built with the older readline (packaged in compat-readline5) to avoid licensing incompatibility or switched to libedit which is compatible with GPLv3, but doesn't support UTF-8.

Comment 1 Neil Horman 2009-07-17 15:22:07 UTC
fixed in the -3.fc12 release.  thanks!

Comment 2 Neil Horman 2009-07-20 10:23:21 UTC
grr, compat-readline seems to be place its libraries in non-standard locations, I'll need to figure out what to do about this.

Comment 3 Miroslav Lichvar 2009-07-20 10:32:42 UTC
That's to avoid conflicts with readline-devel. Setting CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS should do the job, please see the attached patch.

Comment 4 Neil Horman 2009-07-20 14:49:06 UTC
fixed in -4.fc12
