BerkeleyDB 6
Summary
Add BerkeleyDB v. 6, which changed license from previous releases (Sleepycat to AGPLv3+), to Fedora while keeping the older version for packages which cannot use BerkeleyDB with the new license.

Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 21
- Last updated: 2014-04-08
- Tracker bug: <will be assigned by the Wrangler>
Detailed Description
The BerkeleyDB, used between others by
, changed license between versions 5.* and 6.* to AGPLv3+ from Sleepycat. As those two licenses are not compatible, packages using the BerkeleyDB either has to change its license to AGPLv3+ compatible, keep on using the older BerkeleyDB or use another DB entirely.
rpm
Target of this change is to create new set of packages from current
, which contains the v5 version, and keep it alongside the latest BerkeleyDB.
libdb
Benefit to Fedora
This change enables projects and packages to use BerkeleyDB with Sleepycat license, allowing them to work until the upstream makes their decision about the license change, and at the same time do not restricts projects which already adopted the BerkeleyDB with new license to the older versions of it.
Scope
- Proposal owners: Create new set of packages and introduce proper versioning in order to not confuse the dynamic linker.
- Other developers: Packages dependent on libdb would have to specify which version they want to use (specify version in the spec
Requires:
field). Rebuilds of dependent packages will be necessary.
- Release engineering: None
- Policies and guidelines: None
Upgrade/compatibility impact
If the versioning of the symbols will be implemented in the v5, user-built software linked against it will need to be rebuilt.
How To Test
Check if dependent projects builds, runs as expected and do not have license incompatibilities.
User Experience
None (ideally).
