Bug#997664: sundials: apparent ABI bumps in sundials5 library packages

[Drew Parsons]

Source: sundials
Version: 5.7.0+dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Unless I misunderstood the package naming system for sundials, looks
like there was an ABI bump in sublibraries when sundials upgraded from
v4 to v5.

It can be seen in 5.7.0+dfsg-1, so it's not a side-effect of the the new
5.8.0 build (hence no need to block 5.8.0 with severity Serious).

The apparently upgraded libraries are

arkode3  ->  arkode4  (libsundials_arkode.so.4)
cvode[s]4  ->  cvodes5  (libsundials_cvode[s].so.5 )
ida[s]4  ->  ida5  (libsundials_ida[s].so.5)
kinsol4  ->  kinsol5  (libsundials_kinsol.so.5)
nvecserial4 ->  nvecserial5  (libsundials_nvecserial.so.5)
sunmatrix2  ->  sunmatrix3   (libsundials_sunmatrixband.so.3 etc)
sunlinsol2  ->  sunlinsol3   (libsundials_fsunlinsolband.so.3 etc, and other anomalies)

nvecparallel-XX4  ->  nvecparallel-XX5 (libsundials_nvecXX.so.5)
(XX = pthread, petsc, openmp, mpi, hypre)
