We can find firebird25 packages in home:mkubecek:firebird25 repo so they could be used I think.
This was actually the reason why I created them. I already contacted firebird package maintainers but didn't get much response yet. Personally, I can see three minor issues which should be resolved before the packages can be taken into Factory: 1. I created the packages from scratch so they might need some tweaking to allow clean upgrade from current 2.1 packages. I didn't check this yet. 2. The isql tool should be probably renamed to something like fb-isql to remove conflict with ODBC packages. This is trivial, I just didn't do it yet because Firebird's isql is the only isql I need. :-) 3. The "isqlalign" patch (fixes column alignment in isql with UTF-8) is a bit of "ugly hack" and is inconsistent with the rest of Firebird as it is based on locales and standard C++ library rather than ICU. It might be better to backport the fix from 3.0. I'm ready to resolve these (and possibly other) issues if it helps to get Firebird 2.5 into Factory.
