Package: src:libpinyin
Version: 2.7.92-2

Hi all!

Upstream made a SONAME bumb:

While I don't really understand the reason for it, the resulting paperwork in Debian is now done. 

At the transition bug we had this conversation:

I notice that libpinyin has not yet migrated, even though the 2
days delay is over. Is that because Britney waits for the
dependencies to be migration ready too, or is it because this bug
is not closed yet?


It has not migrated yet because the shared library packages have
strictly versioned dependency on libpinyin-data. Hence, migrating
libpinyin to testing would currently render some packages
uninstallable in testing.

Ideally, this dependency would be relaxed if possible so that this
won't be an issue for the next libpinyin transition. For this one,
all the reverse dependencies and libpinyin need to migrate together.


I take it that Sebastian talks about:

Depends: libpinyin-data (= ${binary:Version})

in libpinyin15 and libzhuyin15.
Question: Would it be an option to change those dependencies to not be versioned in order to make future transitions easier, or are there reasons for keeping it as it is?
