As voted by tech-ctte in #717076, we are going to prepare the
transition from IIJ jpeg to libjpeg-turbo implementation.
The transition plan as asked in the resolution:
1. Since nothing depends on libjpeg8 API we will bump back to
libjpeg.so.62 with extra "decode from memory buffer" interface
(jpeg_mem_src/jpeg_mem_dest).
NOTES:
* Fedora/OpenSUSE has also settled down on libjpeg.so.62, so that
would make us cross-distro compatible.
* Ubuntu has already transitioned to libjpeg-turbo8, so it will be
up to them if they bump back to libjpeg62.
2. The proposed libjpeg-turbo packages implementing libjpeg62 will be
uploaded to experimental before end of July 2014. We will announce
that to debian-devel and leave a reasonable period of time for
people to test their packages to recompile against libjpeg-turbo.
I propose we provide libjpeg-dev dummy (not virtual) package in
experimental, so there's no clash between libjpeg8-dev and
libjpeg-turbo-dev.
3. The updated libjpeg-turbo packages implementing libjpeg62 and
libjpeg-turbo-dev (providing libjpeg-dev virtual package) will be
uploaded to unstable at the end of August 2014. This upload will
be synchronized with libjpeg8 maintainer (or NMUed) to remove
virtual libjpeg-dev from libjpeg8-dev at the same time (or very
close to it).
Cheers,
Ondrej
