What kind of ABI is this referring to?
Based on soname and package name, the libcgroup1 in experimental
claims to be ABI compatible with the library in buster.
Changes in bookworm would be a normal library transition.
OpenStack uses cgroup-tools, which is the only reason why libcgroup
stayed in bullseye at all.
My suggestion was basically asking whether 2.0 would be better for
using with the version of OpenStack in bullseye, this is similar to
your question to Thomas above.
If cgroup-tools in *bookworm* would be incompatible with OpenStack in
bullseye, this could be resolved with Breaks on the bullseye versions
of cinder-common/nova-compute - this is irrelevant for discussing which
version of libcgroup to ship in bullseye.
