icon: new version, switch to 64-bit arch #801
Conversation
The .so is built flat installed in bin/ as in previous versions; I have no idea how this file might get used so I don't know if the location and/or binary library flags are correct.

Ping @microtherion. Will push in a few days if no response. |

👍 this all looks plausible to me (haven't used it in years).
I don't know the reason for the .so, nor do I think I ever knew (possibly having to do with an extension mechanism?).
Only question I have is why the dependency on readline was dropped; ISTR that icon has a REPL, so readline is potentially useful. Did our policies on this change?
PS: Feel free to take over as maintainer, if you wish.

Doesn't access readline headers or link against anything except x11. I added some instrumentation to the build to help catch it. I don't actually use this thing at all, I'm just working on upgrading everything that used older versions of readline. |

Maintainer seems okay; I don't want to maintain it, just minimal work to keep existing packages modernly buildable |
