Inside the Debian archive maybe, but ...

So src:libppd has been renamed to src:libppd-legacy, and has entered
experimental yesterday. While doing so, I've fixed a longstanding
mismatch in the soname version, hence the new number libppd-legacy*1*.

I'm wondering what this means for users of the library that don't have packages in the Debian archive. If some downstream (including the non publicly published ones) (build) depend on the old library, they suddenly get weird failures, right?

At the extreme bare minimum, this needs documentation in the release notes, but I wonder if we consider this enough.

Paul
