Subject: [bug#63943] [PATCH 0/5] Update Fibers to 1.3.1
Date: Wed,  7 Jun 2023 10:39:36 +0200

Hello!

This is the much anticipated upgrade of Fibers to 1.3.1, which among
other things brings a libevent backend, making it usable on non-Linux
systems.

To me it’s important so we can upgrade the Shepherd in use on GNU/Hurd
(it’s still stuck at 0.8 because so far Fibers lacked support for
non-Linux systems), which in turn means we can use the newer Shepherd
APIs in its config file.  Unfortunately, while shepherd cross-builds
and runs on GNU/Hurd, I’m not confident it “works”.  I’ll write more
in a separate message.

There’s still one users of ‘guile-fibers-1.1’: ‘guile-gemini’.  It
can probably run on Fibers 1.3 but I don’t think it has tests for
that.

Thoughts?

Ludo’.
