Hello Release-Team We packaged MySQL-5.1 in experimental and reached a state where the packages could enter unstable. Along with the new upstream version comes a change from libmysqlclient15 to libmysqlclient16 which is a build-dep for a lot of packages.
When would you want us to do the upload to unstable? Are there any other things we should consider except those on Wiki:TransitionBestPractices? BTW, in #450535 we were asked to think about symlinking libmysqlclient.so.16 to libmysqlclient_r.so.16 because it would mean less problems for e.g. Apache which uses other libraries who sometimes link against one and sometimes the other. But as libmysqlclient_r is lacking the global my_errno variable they are not binary compatible so we stick with two different libraries even if both have the same shared library symbol "libmysqlclient_16". Do you agree on that? bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
