To facilitate packages that require a newer version of libsodium, I
have coordinated an update of libsodium in EPEL7 from version 1.0.5 (libsodium.so.13) to
version 1.0.16 (libsodium.so.23). To avoid any ABI breakage for existing packages, a new
libsodium13 compatibility package has been created that will continue to provide the old
version.
The following packages link against libsodium:
- cjdns
- dnscrypt-proxy
- dnsdist
- fastd
- php-pecl-libsodium
- zeromq
Remi has already rebuilt php-pecl-libsodium against the new version with an override. In
my testing, the other packages continue to be installable and just resolve to libsodium13
instead of libsodium, as expected.
I have read through the update policies [1][2], but I am unsure where this would fall
since the old version will continue to be available with the compatibility package. Do I
need to take any additional steps other than submitting the bodhi update for
libsodium-1.0.16-1.el7 and libsodium13-1.0.5-1.el7?
My understanding is that this should be sufficient.
