I would like to upload libgusb from experimental to unstable. In 0.4.9-3, I removed a patch that reverted some old upstream symbol refactoring. I removed the patch because it made it simpler to run dh_auto_test (which wasn't being run before). I didn't realize at the time but this changed the ABI and requires packages to be rebuilt. This was detected by some users and by Ubuntu's autopkgtests for libfprint. (Debian's libfprint package doesn't include those autopkgtests but maybe it should.) I didn't want to restore the patch so the easiest fix to ensure compatibility was to rename the library package which has been done in experimental. I verified today that all reverse dependencies in Unstable build against libgusb from experimental. The auto tracker is good. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
