Package: collectd
Version: 5.7.2-1
Tags: upstream

I have recently uploaded an up-to-date version of libsigrok to
experimental, which bumps the library soname to 4. The only package
that's not part of the sigrok suite which depends on libsigrok is
collectd. However a simple attempt to rebuild against the updated
library failed as the configure script checks to ensure the version is <
0.4. Removing this check unsurprisingly resulted in a build failure due
to changes in the libsigrok API. Upstream are tracking this at:

https://github.com/collectd/collectd/issues/1574

but there's been no progress in over a year. I may have time to
investigate in a few weeks if no one gets there first, but no promises.
