Just to be sure we don't loose sight of the original intent of this bug....
The bug is that 8.04 breaks binary compatibility with previous releases by removing an interface (libexpat.so.0). The fact that wink has been "fixed" is great, but does not address the fundamental issue. > Matthias Klose > please could somebody demonstrate the problem instead of saying "the symlink > is missing" I have an application. It runs fine on 6.06 LTS and 7.10. When I try to run it on 8.04 it fails because 8.04 has broken binary compatibility with previous releases by removing libexpat.so.0 Granted, I don't know what Ubuntu's binary compatibility policy is (I haven't found it formally stated anywhere). But this breakage seems gratuitous. -- libexpat1 does not contain libexpat.so.0 in 8.04 Beta https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/218963 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
