--- Comment #11 from Jaroslav Škarvada <jskarvad(a)redhat.com> ---
(In reply to Jonathan Wakely from comment #8)
I wondered why the upstream still has its own thread library, instead
of
using std::thread / boost::thread etc.
And indeed the upstream API docs say the Lunchbox classes are deprecated.
IIRC it's there mainly for the 'bino' [1] from the rpmfusion [2], which can
use
'Equalizer', which IIRC uses 'Lunchbox', from the upstream docs [3]:
Lunchbox is a C++ library for multi-threaded programming, providing
OS
abstraction, utility classes and high-performance primitives, such as atomic
variables, spin locks and lock-free containers. It is used as a base library
for Collage and Equalizer.
Thus I think this package is still useful.
