Dear release team, The new release of cfitsio changes the soname version from 2 to 4. The version 3 has been skipped given some distributions including Debian where using this to provide a version with a stabilized ABI while it was not fully stable on the upstream side. The package is already in experimental and has been built successfully on all official architectures and all non-official ones except sh4. This transition involves about 30 source packages [1]. The changes to the ABI are rather limited, so I don't expect any FTBFS due to the transition itself. Thanks, Aurelien [1] https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-cfitsio.html Ben file: title = "cfitsio"; is_affected = .depends ~ "libcfitsio2" | .depends ~ "libcfitsio4"; is_good = .depends ~ "libcfitsio4"; is_bad = .depends ~ "libcfitsio2"; -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.4.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
