Done. And it's sufficient to bump the hogweed soname, right? I updated
the description in NEWS as follows:
The shared library names are libnettle.so.7.1 and
libhogweed.so.6.0. The libnettle.so library is intended to be
fully binary compatible with nettle-3.5.
The libhogweed.so library was also intended to be fully binary
compatible with nettle-3.5. However, the major version and the
soname are incremented anyway, to avoid upgrade problems with
recent Gnutls versions that depend on Nettle internals outside
of the advertised ABI.
Is that a fair description? I don't think there's any need to mention
any gnutls version numbers here, do you agree?
Regards,
/Niels
