Bug#948468: (unplanned) transition: gpsd
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition
Hi release team,
unfortunately gpsd upstream missed to change the soname version (seems
its actually mentioned in the commit message, but the change is missing)
and I also missed that one struct changed in a subtle way.
Additionally I've learned that some build-rdeps use parts of libgps
that are not part of the official API. These parts changed, so
there will be some FTBFS. I'll take care of them where necessary,
although I know that some people are already working on fixes (pabs for
example).
gpsd 3.20-2 is in NEW right now and will go to experimental, if you
don't object I'd upload it to unstable to make the mess smaller than it
is now.
I'll also implement a CI check for soname bumps in the gpsd upstream CI
;)
Ben file:
title = "gpsd";
is_affected = .depends ~ /^lib.*gps.*25$/ | .depends ~ /^lib.*gps.*26$/;
is_good = .depends ~ /^lib.*gps.*26$/;
is_bad = .depends ~ /^lib.*gps.*25$/;
Sorry & thanks,
Bernd
