Mmm, Attilio, i don't think this file should be hardcoded like that, but better provided by rootskel-gtk, or generated from rootskel-gtk at early runtime, as we may wish to make it configurable from /proc/cmdline, and do some more advanced matching depending on graphic card used or architecture, as i proposed yesterday. > > this would faclitate taking screenshots of the g-i and could prevent > > some issues related to hw-aceleration. > > > Guillem, as maintainer of libdirectfb where do you think is better > > placing the /etc/directfb configuration file? into the gtk-rootskel or > > into libdirectfb? > > maybe this can be done next time you release DFB 0.9.24, that seems to > > contain many bugfixes over DFB 0.9.22 > > (http://www.directfb.org/index.php?path=Main%2FNews) ? > > Yep, I can add the file to the udeb on next upload.

Does the new DFB break ABI compatibiliy nd needs a new soname ? From the version number i kind of doubt that, but i may be wrong. If there is no ABI breakage and soname bump, then it is no lib transition, and a plain upload to unstable will do. Also, there are no many other packages which depend on dfb, i think, so even a ABI bumping transition is mostly OK i believe, not like if you bumped libstdc++ or the libgtk libs.
