Public bug reported: An app can't link against both libsoup2.4 and libsoup3 simultaneously. empathy depends on libsoup2.4 but it also depends on several libraries that will be switching to libsoup3.
There is no longer an upstream for empathy. Empathy was archived more than a year ago which means bug reports, translation updates, and even bugfixes are no longer being accepted. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/empathy I filed https://bugs.debian.org/1016659 to remove empathy from Debian Testing (eventually). It will probably be removed from Debian Unstable later too. Please remove empathy from Ubuntu. We had an Ubuntu diff so it wouldn't have been semi-automatically removed in Ubuntu and we will be doing the libsoup related transitions before Debian. ------------ $ reverse-depends src:empathy Reverse-Recommends * cinnamon-desktop-environment This is actually an alternative.
