Bug Description
I presume the "--coroae" option was dropped in Xenial because the libcoro-perl package failed to build. (Documentation of the option is here: http://
However libcoro-perl is restored in Yakkety, so the "coroae" option in uWSGI should be restored as well.
Or perhaps it should be in a separate subpackage of its own: uwsgi-plugin-
As far as I know this is the only scalable way to do event-driven code with uWSGI Perl applications, and therefore pretty much essential for doing things like Websockets and long-polling with uWSGI and Perl.
I reported this problem 3 months ago. and haven't had any response.
I don't want to make a fuss, but does anyone read these reports and is it worth reporting them? Should they be reported to Debian instead (even though I'm not using Debian?)
I imagine the fix is quite simple for whoever removed the coroae option in the first place - just revert that change.
Thanks.
