The last ABI break was on Aug 23; and it's only used by aufs-tools. The idea of including it in linux-libc-dev just seems better than all other options. So I don't know how stable the ABI really is, but I have only seen 2 ABI breaks since March. I could also include the header file into the aufs-tools source package like btrfs-tools does but I just think it's better to include it here, especially considering Debian derivatives. -- Julian Andres Klode - Debian Developer, Ubuntu Member See http://wiki.debian.org/JulianAndresKlode and http://jak-linux.org/. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
