The BSD nlist works on both a.out and ELF, so it's more generic than the one provided by the libelf implementations, but yes I agree that's not much of selling point currently. Anyway I'm moving all headers from the base directory to /usr/include/bsd/. This will also allow downstreams to possibly install the headers directly under /usr/include/bsd/, instead of /usr/include/libbsd/bsd/. I'll be removing the obsolete headers which have been issuing warnings now for a long time. I didn't end up removing the file in this release, as that might have broken existing software. What I did instead was move it under <includedir>bsd/, and add deprecation warnings and make them errors when LIBBSD_DISABLE_DEPRECATED is defined so that users of the library can easily spot those. The deprecated file will be removed on 0.4.0. This was fixed in libbsd 0.4.0, closing now. |
