Package: src:dbus-c++ Version: 0.9.0-7 Severity: serious Tags: sid stretch User: debian-...@lists.debian.org Usertags: libstdc++-cxx11
dbus-c++ seems to have been omitted from doko's mass-bug-filing for some reason, but it appears to have an ABI change, so here is the necessary bug report. Background [1]: libstdc++6 introduces a new ABI to conform to the C++11 standard, but keeps the old ABI to not break existing binaries. Packages which are built with g++-5 from experimental (not the one from testing/unstable) are using the new ABI. Libraries built from this source package export some of the new __cxx11 or B5cxx11 symbols, and dropping other symbols. If these symbols are part of the API of the library, then this rebuild with g++-5 will trigger a transition for the library. In the case of dbus-c++, it seems that std::string is part of the ABI. <https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=libffado> says libffado failed to build from source with: support/dbus/controlclient.o: In function `DBusControl::ContinuousClient::ContinuousClient(DBus::Connection&, char const*, char const*)': controlclient.cpp:(.text+0x88): undefined reference to `DBus::InterfaceProxy::InterfaceProxy(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)' support/dbus/controlclient.o: In function `DBusControl::ContinuousClient::ContinuousClient(DBus::Connection&, char const*, char const*)': controlclient.cpp:(.text+0x350): undefined reference to `DBus::InterfaceProxy::InterfaceProxy(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)' I believe this means libdbus-c++-1-0 needs renaming to libdbus-c++-1-0v5, because building with g++-5 gives it a new ABI. In the upload that renames to libdbus-c++-1-0v5, do not close this bug. Instead, reassign it to the release team as a transition tracker, by sending an email to cont...@bugs.debian.org: user release.debian....@packages.debian.org usertag <this issue> + transition severity <this issue> normal block <this issue> by 790756 reassign <this issue> release.debian.org This one is a small transition: libffado and sflphone seem to be the only things depending on libdbus-c++ binaries.
