Fedora Core 4: FEDORA-2005-876 Critical: xdelta Large File Fix

Xdelta (X for XCF: the eXperimental Computing Facility at Berkeley) is

a binary delta generator (like a diff program for binaries) and an RCS

version control replacement library. The Xdelta library performs its

work independently of the actual format used to encode the file and is

intended to be used by various higher-level programs such as XCF's

Project Revision Control System (PRCS). PRCS is a front end for a

version control toolset. Xdelta uses a binary file delta algorithm to

replace the standard diff program used by RCS.

xdelta shipped with FC4 isn't compiled with large file

support and uses obsolete glib-1.2 library. The libedsio

symbols are missing from the installed libxdelta library.

This release introduces xdelta ported to glib-2 and fixes

the noted issues.

- link libxdelta against libedsio (#165978)

- add support for large files (#155524)

- port to use glib2 instead of obsolete glib1.2 (#136221)

- convert spec to UTF-8
