Well, libdebug is sort of special case, since I expect it to be utilized in one's local code only while chasing bugs and troubles, and I don't expect it to be involved in any huge package transitions (currently no package build- depends on it, and I doubt any would do in the future), hence no burden is placed onto the release team when SONAME bump occurs. -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
