Bug#1121319: libffado: depends on superseded libxml++2.6
Source: libffado
Version: 2.4.9-2
Severity: normal
Tags: forky sid upstream
Control: block 1038804 by -1
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: oldlibs libxml++2.6
Binaries produced by this source package depend on libxml++2.6, a C++
wrapper around libxml2.
libxml++2.6 is no longer maintained upstream (#1038804). It has been
superseded by libxml++-3.0, which was itself superseded by libxml++-4.0
(RFP: #819562) and libxml++-5.0 (RFP: #1121304).
If this package is ported to one of the newer libraries, packaging the new
version will require packaging the new library first. I haven't marked
#819562 and #1121304 as blockers for this bug, because I don't know which
one would be more appropriate.
