libconfig9 for Wheezy?

[Jonathan McCrohan <jmccrohan@gmail.com>]

Hi,

libconfig [1] has not been updated since Squeeze, and is lagging
upstream by a major version.

Packaging the upstream release is not a problem, but an ABI change will
require a transition from libconfig8 to libconfig9.

The maintainer is aware of the problem, and this has been tracked as
wishlist bug #583528 since May 2010 [2].

Is there enough time left to have this updated before the Wheezy freeze
window?

Thanks,
Jon
