Hi release team and affected maintainers,

Disclaimer: I need new json-c to fix RC licensing bug in php5 (thus I
do care about this package more than I do care for some other).

JSON-C upstream has renamed the library from libjson.so to
libjson-c.so, headers are now in /usr/include/json-c and pkg-config is
called json-c.

There's a compatibility layer (symlinks and libjson.so.0), but since
the library has so few r-deps, I feel that we might not need it to
make things more simple in the future.  The upstream is planning to
drop the compatibility layer in next release anyway, so we would have
to do the transition in some other point in time.

I wrote to fabien, and I still need to hear from him, but I took the
liberty to build the packages and you can find preliminary updated
packages here: https://www.sury.org/json-c/

There are no library symbols removed (just added), so the transition
should be relatively painless (you will just have to do s/json/json-c/
in your packages).
