Bug#647740: ITP: libvertfo - library abstracting event loop interfaces
package: wnpp
severity: wishlist
URL: https://fedorahosted.org/libverto/
Description: libverto provides a common interface on top of libev, libevent, glib, tevent.
The goal is to allow development of asynchronous libraries that will work with whatever event loop an application happens to be using
Features include automatic detection of which event loops are in a particular process space and support for writing new event loop modules.

I'm packaging this because it's a dependency for MIT Kerberos 1.10.
It's kind of annoying but libverto has not yet been released so I'll
probably end up packaging a git snapshot. I'll prod upstream and see
if a release can be caused to happen.
