Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org Usertags: transition
The new upstream of libmysofa comes with a soname bump from libmysofa.so.0 to libmysofa.so.1 consequently the binary package in Debian has to be renamed from libmysofa0 to libmysofa1. This has a direct impact on the following packages: - ffmpeg - libspatialaudio and an indirect impact on vlc (which depends on libspatialaudio). I've done test-builds of ffmpeg and libspatialaudio and everything looks good. This is not very suprising, as there was no actual reason for upstream to bump the soname (no API/ABI breakage). I've had a brief discussion with upstream about semantic versioning, but since the API of the library has been stable for a lengthy period, *and* the library is used by high-profile multimedia applications (ffmpeg, vlc), we agreed that the library should leave its alpha-stage and get a *stable* soname. Thanks for scheduling a transition slot.
