[Package Request] - librdkafka #673

Open saxonww opened 3 months ago

saxonww commented 3 months ago

What package is missing from Amazon Linux 2023? Please describe and include package name.

librdkafka, including librdkafka, librdkafka-devel, and librdkafka-debuginfo.

Is this an update to existing package or new package request?

New request

Is this package available in Amazon Linux 2? If it is available via external sources such as EPEL, please specify.

The package is available in Amazon Linux 2. It was also part of the base repo in CentOS 7, and an older version is packaged for EPEL at https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/librdkafka.

Any additional information you'd like to include. (use-cases, etc)

This is an optional dependency of syslog-ng, and would be useful for #639.

We have the same issue, lack of librdkafka, including librdkafka, librdkafka-devel, and librdkafka-debuginfo on AWS Linux 2023.

This is causing us to delay migration to Amazon Linux 2023 and for us to consider using other distributions that do include this pretty common library.
