new libpisock API
Hi, I am the pilot-link Debian package maintainer.
I contact you because your package kpilot has a dependency on
libpisock8 (provided by the Debian source package pilot-link).
The next version of pilot-link (0.12.0) will have a new API and will not
be source or binary compatible to the actual version (0.11.8). The new
library is named libpisock9.
I provide a package for a preview of the next version 0.12.0-pre2 [1]. I
uploaded the packages in Debian experimental but the packages are still
in the NEW queue [2] waiting for manual edition. pilot-link 0.12.0-pre2
is also provided on my Debian web page [3].
I provide these packages so you can work on kpilot to check that it
compiles and work OK. I guess you will have to work with kpilot upstream.
Note that I will NOT upload any 0.12 pilot-link package in unstable
before sarge is out (as sarge should be release soon now :-).
You should report bug regarding the packaging using the Debian BTS and
bugs regarding pilot-link itself using upstream BTS [4].
Contact me if you have any questions/remarks.
