Package: gnumeric Version: 1.12.56-2 Severity: serious User: debian-...@lists.debian.org Usertags: time-t
Hi Dmitry, Analysis of the archive for the 64-bit time_t transition[0][1] identifies gnumeric as an affected package, on the basis that the headers could not be compiled and analyzed out of the box using abi-compliance-checker[2], so we have to assume it's affected. However, gnumeric's shlibs file declares a dependency on a library package name that contains no ABI information: $ cat DEBIAN/shlibs libspreadsheet 1.12.56 gnumeric (>= 1.12.56) $ It is therefore not obvious that we should rename the package to 'gnumeric-t64' as part of this transition. Looking at the archive, there are packages built from separate source packages which depend on this library: both libgcu0v5 from gnome-chemistry-utils, and also gir1.2-gnumeric from gnumeric source whose only dependency on gnumeric is via the shlibs, rather than being a strict versioned dependency. Since there is no self-evident thing to do with the library package name here, we will not be handling this package as part of the mass NMUs. Instead I am filing a serious bug because partial upgrades from bookworm to trixie on 32-bit architectures will result in ABI skew and may result in broken behavior.
