Sounds good.

Where did you see such a rename - I don't understand what you mean. Or
do you mean the rename of the *package*? This is due to libg++ ABI
change and is documented in bug #791093 which will be closed by my
upload. It has nothing to do with libtools and is part of a general
transition in Debian. Since you have not dealt with these bugs all
libbpp* packages have RC critical bugs and would not have been released
with the next Debian release.

Its basically the name change of the package, conflicts with the old
name and a rebuild. You do not have this issue since you are not
creating a distribution of several software packages needing to cope
with an ABI change in a central library. In other words: You do not
need to care about this (if you do not care about the packaging but
only developing the upstream library code).
Kind regards
Andreas.
