Yes, the only change from upstream is "Allow colors to have leading
whitespace, with or without '#'." That shouldn't cause problems for
backward compatibility.
The Multi-Arch change could cause problems for its rdeps, but doesn't
seem to be. The only reverse dependency of libkml is gdal at the moment,
and that it rebuilds fine with the new libkml.
Also without a rebuild, upgrading libkml on an unstable system doesn't
seem to cause problems. I've loaded a subset of the kml-testcases with
QGIS and marble, once with the libkml/1.3.0~r863-4.1 and once with
libkml/1.3.0~r864-1 installed. Both use GDAL to parse the KML files.
Kind Regards,
Bas
