Hello folks,
I've taken the gawk package throufh some maintenance recently. The specfile was not
conforming to Fedora Packaging Guidelines anymore, and was becoming outdated. I tried to
bring it to FPG as close as possible, therefore 2 new optional subpackages have been
created:
* gawk-devel - contains the /usr/include/gawkapi.h header file
* gawk-doc - contains additional HTML, PDF and PS documentation (from upstream)
Below [1] you can find the list of *possibly* affected packages below. Since the change is
trivial (the header file has been moved from main package to *-devel subpackage), this
should not affect runtime of any current releases (unless you regularly build something in
your packages with the /usr/include/gawkapi.h, which I doubt :)).
The only problem you might have is during compilation of your packages. In case your
builds fail, please check if you need to update the 'BuildRequires' tag to
*gawk-devel*.
Other changes include:
* support for GNU MPFR in gawk
* build with libsigsegv library
Bodhi updates are here (changes are in Rawhide as well):
*
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-30fc11cd13 - F24
*
https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2016-e767636296 - F25
Last NOTE: I will be doing a rebase to gawk-4.1.4 for Fedora 26.
Best regards,
David Kaspar [Dee'Kej]
