Hello again, I'm still in the process of preparing mimelib1 packages for debian unstable. Now I realized that the packages which I prepare do have slightly different symbols than the old libmimelib1c2a package from kdepim/3.5.9-1.
I tracked down the changes to some changes/patches I applied to the library sources, but I don't know what to do about it. First, I don't know much about the whole topic library, symbols, shlibs, soname etc. I compared the output of 'objdump -T /usr/lib/libmimelib.so.1 | grep \\.text | cut -b62-' for libmimelib1c2a from debian/testing (built from kdepim/3.5.9-1) and the packages that I prepared. The first change I made to the sources is replacing strlcat/strlcpy with strncat/strncpy. That change already produced a diff to the output of objdump, see below. Now what to do about it? should I simply bump the soname and binary package names (from 1 to 2), request binNMUs for packages that do depend on libmimelib1c2a and and forget about the whole issue? Or is there a way to keep ABI compability with the help of a symbols file? greetings, jonas --- objdump_sid_libmimelib1c2a_1.1.2_kde 2009-04-27 16:44:22.000000000 +0200 +++ objdump_sid_libmimelib1c2a_1.1.2 2009-04-28 15:00:15.000000000 +0200 @@ -68,7 +68,6 @@ _ZN7DwGroup5ParseEv _ZNK11DwPopClient17MultiLineResponseEv _ZN9DwHeaders18ContentDescriptionEv -strlcpy _ZN10DwBodyPartC2ERK8DwEntity _ZN10DwDateTime4InitEv _ZN13DwFieldParserC2ERK8DwString @@ -152,7 +151,6 @@ _ZN12DwNntpClient7ArticleEi _ZN9DwHeaders8AssembleEv _ZN10DwBodyPartaSERKS_ -mkstemps _ZNK11DwMechanism15_PrintDebugInfoERSo _ZN10DwUuencode11SetFileModeEt _ZNK7DwMsgId6DomainEv @@ -222,6 +220,7 @@ _ZNK8DwString4findEPKcm _ZN13DwMailboxList8CopyListEPK9DwMailbox _ZNK8DwString17find_first_not_ofEPKcmm +_ZN13DwFieldParserD1Ev _ZgtRK8DwStringS1_ _ZltPKcRK8DwString _ZN17DwDispositionType19DeleteParameterListEv @@ -230,6 +229,7 @@ _ZN13DwAddressListC2ERKS_ _ZN8DwStringD1Ev _ZplcRK8DwString +_Z17new_rep_referenceP11DwStringRep _ZN12DwBoyerMooreC2ERK8DwString _ZN9DwMessageaSERKS_ _ZN6DwBody5ParseEv @@ -296,6 +296,7 @@ _ZN17DwRfc822TokenizerppEv _ZNK7DwGroup11MailboxListEv _ZNK9DwMailbox15CheckInvariantsEv +_ZNK8DwString2atEm _ZN7DwGroupC1Ev _ZN6DwBodyC1ERK8DwStringP18DwMessageComponent _ZN8DwStringD2Ev @@ -398,6 +399,7 @@ _ZN11DwMediaTypeC1ERKS_ _ZNK17DwDispositionType5CloneEv _ZltRK8DwStringPKc +_Z17delete_rep_safelyP11DwStringRep _Z10DwFinalizev _ZNK11DwParameter5CloneEv _ZN8DwString10TakeBufferEPcmmm @@ -550,7 +552,6 @@ _ZN7DwField15SetFieldNameStrERK8DwString _ZNK8DwString8max_sizeEv _ZN10DwBodyPartC2ERKS_ -strlcat _ZN15DwHeadersParser9NextFieldEP8DwString _ZN9DwMailboxD1Ev _ZNK8DwString12find_last_ofEPKcm @@ -606,6 +607,7 @@ _ZN9DwMailboxD2Ev _ZN11DwMechanism12EnumToStringEv _ZN8DwString7replaceEmmRKS_ +_ZN14DwEntityParserD1Ev _ZNK9DwHeaders10HasControlEv _ZN8DwString6resizeEmc _ZN8DwString6appendERKS_ @@ -722,9 +724,11 @@ _ZNK10DwDateTime15CheckInvariantsEv _ZN12DwNntpClient8PGetLineEPPcPi _ZN6DwTextD2Ev +_Z8mem_copyPKcmPc _ZN12DwNntpClient7ArticleEPKc _ZN11DwPopClient22PGetSingleLineResponseEv _ZNK9DwHeaders15HasDistributionEv +_ZN8DwString2atEm _ZN9DwMailboxC2Ev _ZN11DwMediaType10SetTypeStrERK8DwString _ZN18DwMessageComponentC2Ev @@ -872,7 +876,6 @@ _ZNK9DwMailbox8FullNameEv _ZNK9DwHeaders12HasInReplyToEv _Z9DwToCrEolRK8DwStringRS_ -_ZN8DwStringixEm _ZN7DwMsgIdC1Ev _ZN12DwNntpClientC2Ev _ZNK8DwEntity4BodyEv -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
