new wrap: mpack #84

Closed dirkson closed 5 years ago

dirkson commented 5 years ago

upstream url: https://github.com/ludocode/mpack version: 1.0

pkg-config name is also mpack

sarum9in commented 5 years ago

I am not sure mpack is an appropriate name as there are other projects named mpack such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mpack_(Unix) that come first.

I propose to name it ludocode-mpack. Any objections?

dirkson commented 5 years ago

Since most people will use wrabdb for libraries, rather than tool bundles (like the older mpack), I'm not sure we need to be concerned about this name collision.

That said, most distros appear to have solved this collision by naming ludocode's mpack "libmpack". That seems like a slightly cleaner solution to me, even if it doesn't match the pkg-config name.

sarum9in commented 5 years ago

There is also https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MPack_(software) libmpack doesn't work since there is https://github.com/libmpack/libmpack

Sorry, I think I am going to stick with ludocode-mpack, other options are too ambiguous.

Good call; I didn't even notice the other msgpack-based mpack.
