That's not available where the other releases are and used by uscan:

https://support.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF/releases/

The HDF Group website links to the GitHub archive for 4.3.0, so we'll 
just switch uscan to use those.


If there's a SONAME bump we'll have to wait for the 64-bit time_t 
transition to finish.


Kind Regards,

Bas

Bug#1068351: libhdf4: Update to latest upstream version

2024-04-03 Thread Bastian Germann

Source: libhdf4
Version: 4.2.16-4
Severity: important

Please update to the latest upstream version. 4.3.0 has the following changelog entry, which I would like to see in the 
Debian package:


"The XDR I/O library has been refactored into an internal, minimalist I/O layer with a different name. It is no longer 
necessary (or even possible) to link to an external XDR library like TI-RPC, and XDR-related configuration options have 
been removed."


It will get rid of the mfhdf/xdr/* files that have a non-free license (which is 
undocumented in d/copyright by the way).
