The benfile is incomplete.
phodav had an API bump when it switched to libsoup3. spice-gtk also
uses libsoup and did not have its soname bumped. It's not possible for
apps to link against both libsoup2.4 and libsoup3. Therefore, we need
to update spice-gtk to libsoup3. We also need to update libosinfo to
libsoup3 since gnome-boxes and virt-manager link against both
spice-gtk and libosinfo.
Without a soname bump, I don't know how to make an easy ben file for
this transition but I need to do sourceful uploads for all these
packages anyway (except for remmina which has already been taken care
of). I am a team uploader for all the packages.
