I believe the same issue need to be solved for the debian/libunistring5.symbols.hurd-i386 file. Thanks, Boyuan Yang signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

For Debian-specific maintenance: please remove #MISSING# placeholders for disappeared private symbols from the debian/*.symbols file, as they are not needed anyway. For upstream development (optional): it might be better if private symbols' visibility could be made into hidden so that unnecessary symbols are not exposed. > > Please can you check whether the SONAME needs to be changed. > > The library's major version number does *not* need to be bumped. > I considered this question when making this commit: > https://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=libunistring.git;a=commitdiff;h=2a6b2a826c408eaeca3038156d1f512a64b560bd > > Bruno > [/quote] Thanks, Boyuan signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

These symbols have the prefix 'libunistring_', which effectively makes them private symbols. They are *not* part of the API or ABI, as you can see by searching the header files for these symbols. > Please can you check whether the SONAME needs to be changed. The library's major version number does *not* need to be bumped.

Having #MISSING# in .symbols file is a red flag. It is a strong indication that the library is breaking API explicitly. Please check again and work with upstream to persue bumping SONAME together with API/ABI breakage. This is especially important given large number of reverse dependencies.
