As part of reviewing priority mismatches for the jammy release[1], I noticed that we are now pulling two json-parsing C libraries into the default Ubuntu install. We have had libjson-c in the default install for a while, as a dependency of libcryptsetup (and others); and libjansson has been in main since 2015, but is now being pulled into the default install by both mtr-tiny and nftables.
Is there any hope of consolidation here? Having two competing C implementations of any sort of parser library in main seems like a suboptimal choice. Does anyone have a view on which of these two implementations is of higher quality or has a better API? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
