Year 1013? I will assume 2013 ;-p

Seriously though, still about Debian packaging and proper shared
library handling.

For 14.4.1, I intend to switch from shlibs to the newly introduced
symbol mechanism for shared library packaging.

While shlib was pretty coarse, a shared library either kept the same
ABI or it was broken, symbol file(s) offer fine grained control.

That being said, it would help me if you could tell me if a new symbol
was introduced or an existing one modified in 14.4.1.
See [1] for details on what constitutes an ABI change.

I don't know if I can automate that verification, I would assume there
must be a way to at least partly automate this. Otherwise maintaining
big unstable shared libraries would be a nightmare.

Cheers,

-Pascal
