Yeah, it's an interesting case, but I'm going to say that we should just treat it as a function addition, not a removal. My thought process: - From an ABI perspective, no function definitions have been changed. This is because the exposed functions in the library itself have not been changed. - From an API perspective, a function definition with no implementation was removed, but this has zero effect on the linkage with other applications. So I'd treat this like "an internal private function was just promoted to being a public function". So for handling the version-info, it should be just treated as a new function and leave it at that. (So, effective result: collection's version info changes from 3:0:1 to 4:0:2 Ack, with that correction. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlLT8dgACgkQeiVVYja6o6MN9ACbB4b4X4QIgkHnOlCmHB3mGXa2 DV8An2B0rOyZPtxq4/hhPs4D8VuNawDB =T5fo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ sssd-devel mailing list sssd-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/sssd-devel
