Package: gmp
Version: 4.2.dfsg-1
Severity: serious

>From 4.1.4-11 to 4.2.dfsg-1 there was a ABI-incompatible change caused
by an altered typedef for mpz_class. This breaks dependent libraries and
applications using the C++ wrapper library libgmpxx, thus it led to
silent breakage and FTBFS bug reports.

To fix this issue please bump libgmpxx's SONAME, rename the
corresponding library package and update the shlibs information stance.
Then all dependent packages (C++ packages using gmp) have to be rebuilt
against the new revision, possibly with their own SONAME bumped in case
of library packages.

Kind regards,
Philipp Kern
