http://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1130404 Bug ID: 1130404 Summary: Considering removal of libjasper in openSUSE Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Tumbleweed Version: Current Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other Assignee: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: mvetter@suse.com QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- Since JasPer upstream [1] is quite unreliable I think about removing libjasper from openSUSE repos. Debian removed libjasper with the release of Debian Stretch [2] in 2017. I try to motivate upstream to clean up its bugtracker and help fixing current issues and CVEs while I work on the fixes, I would like to minimize JasPer usage in openSUSE and use OpenJPEG [3] as a replacement when possible. OpenJPEG upstream seems more active and other distributions rely on it too. 1: https://github.com/mdadams/jasper 2: https://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2016/02/msg00734.html 3: http://www.openjpeg.org/ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
