Proposed MBF: Removal of libfreetype6-dev
Hi,
I will be removing the transitional package libfreetype6-dev (from the
source package freetype) later this year.
Currently, there are 219 build-dependencies and 29 (direct)
dependencies on libfreetype6-dev, which has been released with
bullseye and bookworm.
I plan to file bugs with severity: normal in mid-August and drop
libfreetype6-dev from October. At this point, I will raise the
severity of the bugs to serious.
My proposed bug template:
------------------------------------------------------>8
Subject: Please build-depend on libfreetype-dev
Severity: normal
Usertags: libfreetype6-dev
Dear maintainer,
I will be removing libfreetype6-dev from Debian in October this year.
libfreetype6-dev is a transitional package and was replaced by
libfreetype-dev when bullseye was released.
Your package currently build-depends on libfreetype6-dev. Please
update your package's control file to build-depend on libfreetype-dev.
If your package is not updated, it will fail to build from source once
libfreetype6-dev is no longer available.
This mass bug filing was discussed on debian-devel@: <url>.
Thanks,
Hugh
------------------------------------------------------>8
I plan to file bugs against source packages first and against any
remaining binary packages later.
A list of affected source and binary packages is attached.
Happy to discuss if anyone has any suggestions or concerns.
Hugh
