Hi RMs,
Unplanned transition of tiff as its new release is just recently out.
The API seems to be the same, but the ABI is changed. Basic reason is
that its behaviour is changed and returns quicker from processing
invalid images.
While it's a big transition, nine levels deep, test rebuilds show in
the first five levels only two package self-testing breaks. I've
already patched one of them. Currently it only hard breaks hylafax
which seems to be a dead project since 2012; a memory corruption and a
security fix was committed to it, but even those happened in 2018 or
earlier. Anyway, I've notified tiff upstream and will act accordingly.
As tiff is used commonly and has security issues from time to time it
would be good to have its latest release in Debian. I don't know if
the old version will get any fixes or not.
Regards,
Laszlo/GCS
