A new snapshot of libedit [1] is now available and it involves a bump
in the soname. Here is the relevant ChangeLog entry:

2009-01-11  Jess Thrysoee

   * version-info: 0:28:0

   * all: sync with upstream source. MAJOR.MINOR version is now 3.0.
	This is due to NetBSD changing time_t and dev_t to 64 bits. It does
	not really effect this package.

   * configure.ac: Remove '--enable-debug' configure flag. The autoconf way
	to control flags is by specifying them when running configure,
	e.g. 'CFLAGS="-O0 -g" ./configure'

I am planning to update libedit _after_ Fedora 11 Alpha has been
released. According to "repoquery --whatrequires `repoquery --provides
libedit`" the following packages depending on libedit will be affected
by this change:

asterisk
ghc
libreadline-java
Io-language
php-pecl-xdebug
openssh-clients

What do you think?

Happy hacking,
Debarshi
