Hello, It has been a long time since the last upload of hdf5 in unstable but here it is, version 1.8.8 is in unstable!
I need your help with the transition [1]. In most of the cases, a renamed of the build dep libhdf5-serial-dev => libhdf5-dev with a rebuild should be enough. Otherwise, don't hesitate to ping me. While it should not impact you much, changes are important [1]: * Since upstream is now trying to keep a consistent ABI/API, packages have been renamed from libhdf5-xxx-X.Y.Z (X, Y and Z being the version number) to libhdf5-xxx-7 (7 being the version of the soname) * The package libhdf5-serial-* have been renamed to libhdf5-7 or libhdf5-dev * Symbol files have been added for all the libraries. * arm archs have also libhdf5-openmpi-dev * Support of HURD, armhf & s390x * Help is now up to date and the debian/html.tgz.uu removed (thanks to the source format v3.0, two source tarballs are now used) * A new package hdf5-helpers which contains h5cc, h5c++ and h5fc has been introduced * Fix many lintian warnings * Java HDF has been updated to version 2.8 There is the list of the impacted packages, sorted by maintainer is available at [3] (I am aware that most of you will received duplicate emails and I apologize). Thanks for the help, Sylvestre [1] http://release.debian.org/transitions/html/hdf5.html [2] It is just a lazy copy & paste from my blog: http://sylvestre.ledru.info/blog/sylvestre/2012/01/18/major_changes_in_the_debian_hdf5_package [3] A.
