Oddly enough, honeyd and libevent are from the same author.

Its precisely because its the same author that he made use of aspects of the libevent API that are not documented and were never meant to be exposed.

There are two problems with this packages:

1) there is a collision between encode_int defined as a macro in libevent-2's event2/tag_compat.h and in honeyd's tagger.h/.c.  That's easily fixed by renaming the function in honeyd.  I'll provide the patch in my next post.

2) the harder problem is the dereferncing of struct evbuffer objects.  evbuffer changed in deep ways between libevent-1 and -2.  In the former it was just one element whereas in the latter it was replaced by a linked list.  Upstream libevent his helping me with this.

Rename honeyd's encode_int to encode__int  (two underscores)

I couldn't think of a better name than encode__int with two rather than one underscore.  I'll be happy to change it to something else.
Comment 5 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-02-24 17:53:53 UTC
honeyd now DEPENDs on =dev-libs/libevent-1*.
Comment 6 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-07 17:21:58 UTC
Has upstream done anything lately? I'd like to get rid of libevent-1.
Comment 7 Peter Volkov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-07 22:07:43 UTC
Nothing as I see:
http://code.google.com/p/honeyd/source/list

But debian still maintains this:
http://patch-tracker.debian.org/patch/debianonly/view/honeyd/1.5c-8

Probably correct workaround is to slot libevent.

When I was pushing through libevent-2 I found nothing from upstream.  I then tried to recode honeyd with the new libevent API with help from Nick Mathewson, but I hit some real snags and gave up.

Maybe slotting is the way to go.
Comment 9 Jeroen Roovers (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2011-08-08 21:49:26 UTC
I don't think SLOTting is an option when only one unmaintained (by upstream) packages needs it, especially when upstream is the author of both.
Comment 10 Pacho Ramos gentoo-dev 2012-06-09 21:30:57 UTC
maybe should be treecleaned as seems upstream no longer takes care about it :/

+1

I tried but it makes use of too much stuff that is now hidden in libevent-2 and should never have been exposed in libevent-1.  Upstream was no help.

It's gone.

p.mask is gone too.
