I don't think so. pa_format_info_free2() was never part of the ABI, except in a very technical sense that isn't relevant here, in my opinion. > And Debian/Ubuntu nowadays automatically checks > this and complains loudly (i e build failure) if a symbol is removed.

I ended up putting it back. Why do the distro maintainers demand adding cruft back? I understand if they complain and call us stupid and whatever, because we cause extra work for them, but there's absolutely no long term need to add pa_format_info_free2() back. It's only the distro tools that will cause trouble, no application code will ever break because of this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the QA Contact for the bug.
