Hi,
I guess that libjpeg8 could stay out of testing or even removed from the
archive. Only one package (ipe) depends on libjpeg8, and that package
builds fine with libjpeg-turbo.
After the ctte decision[0], all the packages have transitioned to
libjpeg-turbo.
Hello Laurent,
Hello Bill,
I am sure you mean well but the CTTE decision does not require the
removal of libjpeg62/libjpeg8 from stretch.
Well nothing in the archive depends on these packages and the
release/security team is usually not happy having multiple
implementations of almost the same library in the archive. libjpeg6b and
libjpeg8 were not in the jessie release for example.
If they will not be part of next release (stretch), it might be
interesting to remove them early to avoid other packages to depend on
them again.
libjpeg8 is needed for compatibility with wheezy.
I'm not sure what you mean by that.
