I have no special clue here, I never worked with these packages. I uploaded a couple of versions of libwoodstox a lot of time ago because it was required by osmosis, which I do not maintain anymore (funnily, the current osmosis version still lists libwoodstox-java as a build dependency, but not as a dependency; this might indicate that the library is not required anymore, but nobody remembered to strip it away from the build dependencies). My personal suggestion is to: * build a new version of libwoodstox-java; * try to re-build the reverse dependencies (including osmosis) and see if everything works (in order to do this debomatic is a very useful tool); * contact maintainers for the reverse dependencies and ask them to check the new package as well; * if everything is ok, upload new version (and check whether reverse dependencies have to be re-built as well; if API is stable enough, probably not).
