#74180: LMDB 1.0.0 concerns
----------------------+--------------------
 Reporter:  artkiver  |      Owner:  (none)
     Type:  defect    |     Status:  new

----------------------+--------------------
 So, the other day I submitted a PR to update LMDB to 1.0.0 here:

 https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/33380

 I mentioned as much to Howard Chu (lead dev behind LMDB and OpenLDAP) and
 he responded with the following:

 "distros will probably need to ship both 0.9 and 1.0 for a while, to allow
 migrating DBs between versions."

 (via: https://mastodon.social/@hyc/116846257206360295)

 So, I thought, maybe I should instead create a new port for 1.0.0?

 Doing so (calling it lmdb-devel) I encountered the following locally
 (already having installed lmdb):

 So, I am not really sure if having two LMDB ports is going to work? Or
 maybe, this is because I created a local lmdb-devel port, for the same
 version of LMDB?

 I dunno.

 For the sake of completeness, here's the output after I -f activated it:

 tbh, I'm not sure if Howard's concern is that catastrophic with regards to
 MacPorts? However, I think it is probably the most widely used port I have
 volunteered to help maintain and I am guessing there may be a lot of
 things down stream of it which probably need testing?

 So it seemed worth at least documenting a bit more extensively beyond the
 GitHub Pull Request.

 I've asked for perspective on IRC as well, though no one has replied there
 so far; and I thought better to have something to point to more
 substantively using Trac before raising more attention via the mailing
 list (if it comes to that).

 Thanks!
