>From the guile side of things, I suggest that guile-1.8-libs be renamed guile-1.8-libs-threaded or something like that so that the ABI change is marked by a package name change (so that it doesn't fulfil dependencies of packages compiled against the non-threads ABI). On the TeXmacs side of things, the problam can rather easily be circumvented with a rebuild and a dependency on guile-1.8-libs >= 1.8.2+1-2 and a build-depends on guile >= 1.8.2+1-2 . It is a "bad solution" in the long-term, but it is an immediate action that will put back a working TeXmacs in Debian. -- Lionel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
