In one of the library packages I maintain (hidapi), upstream removed a
couple of global variables (my .symbols file noticed this). See
abipkgdiff below.
Does this break ABI? My assessment is that it does NOT, but I would like
to confirm. These variables were not declared in a header file, so I
can't see how external user code would have referenced them.
Thanks,
Scott
