I wanted to give a heads up earlier. I will rebuild all the reversed
dependencies now.
I have started rebuilding reverse dependencies and closed bugs of those
who succeeded to build against the new version (birdfont, callingra,
fritzing, gall, gnuastro).
gitg (and geany-plugins) is failing to build because mbedtls does not
provide a pkg-config file (#900015). libgit2 now supports mbedTLS
backend as alternative to building against openssl. Earlier versions of
libgit2 were using a debian specific patch to use curl with gnutls
instead, but upstream does not want to use curl and prefers mbedTLS.
