I have a question regarding the debian package. In the control file, there is the following entry for the libgdamm3.0-10 binary package:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package: libgdamm3.0-10 Architecture: any Conflicts: libgdamm3.0-8, libgdamm-3.0-8, libgdamm3.0-9 Replaces: libgdamm3.0-8, libgdamm-3.0-8, libgdamm3.0-9 Depends: ${misc:Depends}, ${shlibs:Depends} Description: C++ wrappers for libgda3 libgdamm is a set of C++ bindings for the libgda3 database API. libgda is the GNU Data Access library. . This package contains the shared library. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Based on the discussion above (StefanPotyra et. al.), I was under the impression that there should not be conflicts/replaces fields for a library package with a soname bump since it might lead to breakage. What am I missing? libgdamm3.0_2.9.82-0ubuntu2 was uploaded yesterday. So the problems with the conflicts/replaces fields for the -dev and -doc binary packages has been corrected. However, having the stable release of the library is probably a good idea. -- Request: Upgrade libgdamm3.0 to upstream version 2.9.81 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190744 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
