[ANN] Guile-Udev 0.2.1 released

[Artyom V. Poptsov]

Hello Guilers,

I'm pleased to announce Guile-Udev 0.2.1:
  https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/guile-udev/releases/tag/v0.2.1

See the full list of the user-visible changes below.


* What is Guile-Udev?

Guile-Udev is a GNU Guile library that provides bindings to libudev[1]
library.

The library comes with Info documentation and usage examples.

* Changes in version 0.2.1 (2021-12-26)
** Fix compilation errors on aarch64
   The naming conflict between variable 'fd_set' and 'typedef(fd_set)' can
   cause compilation errors on aarch64, just like in this issue reported on
   C++: <http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/unices/108481/>

   Now this problem should be fixed.

   Reported by: Antlers <antlers@github.com> in
   <https://github.com/artyom-poptsov/guile-udev/pull/1>
** Bump libtool library version
   The library version wasn't properly updated in the 0.2.0 release. Now it is
   bumped to 1:1:0 according to libtool recommendations:
   
<https://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/html_node/Updating-version-info.html>

   Old programs that use Guile-UDev 0.1.0 or 0.2.0 can use the new version
   0.2.1 as a drop-in replacement.

* Usage examples

There is an example named 'examples/device-listener.scm'.  It listens to
USB events and prints device paths from events to the stdout.

Also the library is used as a foundation for a USB flash auto-mounter
daemon that I've written for one of my jobs:

Happy hacking!
