This gem depends on the librdkafka C library. It is downloaded when this gem is installed.

To update the librdkafka version follow the following steps:

• Go to https://github.com/confluentinc/librdkafka/releases to get the new version number and asset checksum for tar.gz.
• Change the version in lib/rdkafka/version.rb
• Change the sha256 in lib/rdkafka/version.rb
• Run bundle exec rake in the ext directory to download and build the new version
• Run docker-compose pull in the main gem directory to ensure the docker images used by the tests and run docker-compose up
• Finally, run bundle exec rspec in the main gem directory to execute the test suite to detect any regressions that may have been introduced by the update
