Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
User-Agent: Mutt/1.0pre4i
Organization: SEIS group, CS dept., Leiden University
X-System: Debian GNU/Linux potato, kernel 2.2.13ac1

Package: sciplot
Version: 1.36-3
Severity: important

This package needs to be recompiled with lesstif-dev. Currently, it depends
on lesstifg which cannot coexist with lesstif1 which is the correct version
for potato.

Herbert Xu, the LessTif maintainer, has provided background in a message
sent to several of the maintainers of LessTif-using packages:
>        Due to the upstream ABI change that occured in 0.86, lesstif 0.86 is
>no longer binary compatible with previous versions of lesstif.  This means
>that the new lesstif library package can no longer satisfy the dependencies of
>old app packages.
>
>        This had not affected us earlier because we've been compiling lesstif
>so that it uses the old ABI.  This has the unfortunate side-effect that
>binaries compiled on Debian is incompatible with lesstif libraries compiled
>elsewhere and vice versa.
>
>        Starting with 0.89.0-1, there are now two library packages, lesstifg
>with the old ABI and lesstif1 with the new ABI.  They both contain libraries
>with the same soname so they cannot be installed together.
>
>        Packages depending on lesstif should be recompiled with with the new
>lesstif-dev package so that they use the new ABI.  This should be done before
>potato is released as otherwise people may not be able to install to packages
>that both use lesstif because one depends on lesstif1 and the other on
>lesstifg.
>
>        In future releases, I may drop lesstifg in favour of a package with
>a different name that contains the backward compatible libraries in a
>directory that is not accessible to the linker.  This will allow people to
>use old binaries by doing an LD_PRELOAD or specifying LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
