Bug#404942: syncevolution packaging update

[David Bremner <bremner@unb.ca>]

So I have debian packaging for syncevolution 0.9beta3+something at 

Vcs-Git: git://git.debian.org/git/collab-maint/syncevolution
Vcs-Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=collab-maint/syncevolution

It is integrated with upstream history from moblin. The main question
mark is the embedded copy of libsynthesis. 

I have a few questions for Patrick

  1) can I assume that the version of synthesis embedded is given by the git hash in src/synthesis/README?
  So if I just check that hash out, I'll get the same code?

  2) Paul Liu suggests making separate packages for the syncevolution shared libraries so that applications 
  can link to them. Is the ABI stable enough (i.e. say over a few releases) to make this worthwhile?

  3) Same question for libsynthesis. I saw there have been no tarball
  releases yet, which makes me think things are still prety fluid.

Thanks and sorry for the glacial pace,

David
