Re: [ITA] libaprutil1-1.3.4-1


Ping.

Is there anything else I need to do before this is uploaded?

create and maintain software libraries that provide a predictable and
consistent interface to underlying platform-specific implementations.
The primary goal is to provide an API to which software developers may
code and be assured of predictable if not identical behaviour regardless
of the platform on which their software is built, relieving them of the
need to code special-case conditions to work around or take advantage of
platform-specific deficiencies or features."

I should point out that I'm still building against libdb4.2 because I don't know what effect upgrading to libdb4.6 would have on packages like subversion. Specifically, I don't know if this would require repository dumps and reloads if the repository uses bdb.


Also, the ldap, PostgreSQL, and SQLite3 dependencies are for included loadable modules; they are not required for the main library. Should I include those as dependencies or let other packages that actually use the modules declare them?
