Why do you expose -ldatrie in pkg-config --libs libthai? It seems to me pango doesn't use any of libdatrie's symbols and would work with either the new or the old libthai (that is would work with whatever version of libdatrie is used by libthai). > So, pango would need to be rebuilt against the new libthai-dev > to fix the problem. Could you change "Requires: datrie" to "Requires.private: datrie" in libthai.pc in unstable first? We could then rebuild pango against this libthai.pc and drop the libdatrie dep hence avoiding the problem and the transition entirely (the binaries could migrate to testing separately). -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
