Hi all,
I intend to remove minizip from the zlib package and replace it with a more maintained fork [1][2]. To preserve backwards compatibility and ease the transition on maintainers of dependent packages, the idea is to provide minizip-compat and minizip-compat-devel packages in the zlib minizip package first.
Therefore, I would like to ask all maintainers of the packages depending on minizip and/or minizip-devel to update their dependencies to minizip-compat and minizip-compat-devel respectively.
For now this is just a "cosmetic" change without any breakages. However, when all related packages will require minizip-compat I will build the new minizip package with a soname bump.
Please keep in mind that the minizip-compat package is just a temporary solution to give us some time and should be considered deprecated as soon as I build the new minizip package.
Finally, here's a list of related packages: chromium libsbml mingw-zfstream mingw-zlib qt5-qtwebengine assimp zfstream R-Rcompression gpsbabel vxl COPASI psi GLC_lib qmc2 mingw-libkml libdigidocpp zipper libCombine xu4 blender libsedml collada-dom quazip psi-plus vacuum-im godot sigil libnuml zlib libkml fritzing
