[...] Hello, Point of information: Afaict from the changelog the only reason for the soname bump in 0.9.4 is this one: ----------------------------------------- diff -NurbBp xxx-libunistring-dev_0.9.6+really0.9.3-0.1/usr/include/unistr.h xxx-libunistring-dev_0.9.7-1/usr/include/unistr.h --- xxx-libunistring-dev_0.9.6+really0.9.3-0.1/usr/include/unistr.h 2016-05-27 12:54:58.000000000 +0200 +++ xxx-libunistring-dev_0.9.7-1/usr/include/unistr.h 2017-06-10 12:18:01.000000000 +0200 @@ -562,12 +595,23 @@ extern uint32_t * /* Compare S1 and S2. */ /* Similar to strcmp(), wcscmp(). */ +#ifdef __sun +/* Avoid a collision with the u8_strcmp() function in Solaris 11 libc. */ +extern int + u8_strcmp_gnu (const uint8_t *s1, const uint8_t *s2) + _UC_ATTRIBUTE_PURE; +# define u8_strcmp u8_strcmp_gnu +#else extern int - u8_strcmp (const uint8_t *s1, const uint8_t *s2); + u8_strcmp (const uint8_t *s1, const uint8_t *s2) + _UC_ATTRIBUTE_PURE; +#endif ----------------------------------------- i.e. it is specific to __sun. So afaict this transition should go smoothly without breakage of programs linking against both version of libunistring although libunistring does not use versioned symbols. cu Andreas -- `What a good friend you are to him, Dr. Maturin.
