Soprano News

Soprano 2.7.4 is another bugfix release in the 2.7 series:

• Enabled large file support (_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64) to fix large DB file locking on 32bit machines.
• Do not use an event loop when waiting for Virtuoso to initialize.
• In the socket client: simply close the connection in case of a timeout. We cannot recover from it anyway.

Soprano 2.7.3 comes with two small improvements over 2.7.2:

• Soprano can now be built with cmake 2.6 again (2.6.4 to be exact - matching the min requirement for kdelibs 4.7.3)
• The Virtuoso backend now emits a signal when the virtuoso instance goes down. This is used by Nepomuk to restart if Virtuoso crashed or was killed by a third party.

It is recommended for packagers to use Soprano 2.7.3 with KDE 4.7.3.

I hereby announce the release of Soprano 2.7.2, the second bugfix release in the Soprano 2.7 series. It comes with the following fixes:

Update:
Please DO NOT USE these releases as the appent fix they contain actually makes things worse. I am working on a real fix.
