Yes, that's why it is an ABI break and not an API one. The
AVPacketList symbol is removed from libavformat, and programs compiled
with AVPacketList in libavformat will break.
No since all that's moved is the struct declaration. No symbols are
moved or changed here.
You have an ABI break when:
- You change the size of a public field in a struct.
- You increase the size of a struct that doesn't have an allocator.
- You remove a function.
You have a C API break when:
- You remove a macro, struct or function declaration.
You have a C++ API break when:
- You change a field or parameter type even if its size remains the same.
