I was able to build libgadu successfully with libprotobuf-c-dev added to Build-Depends and it picked up the system provided copy of libprotobuf-c automatically. I don't have a Gadu-Gadu account so I was unable to test the libgadu binary built this way, unfortunately. It did pass the test suite, FWIW. I looked over the changes to libgadu's convenience copy of protobuf-c.c and I *believe* that all the changes are relatively minor (fixing up warnings due to libgadu compiling with more -W flags, replacing C++-style comments with C89-compatible comments, etc.), or, at least, they don't change any of the semantics of the protobuf-c library. There might be some changes from libgadu that we might want to rebase and apply to upstream libprotobuf-c, but it doesn't look like anything will break if libgadu is built against the system's protobuf-c. -- Robert Edmonds edmo...@debian.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
