Package: libdmapsharing-3.0-2
Version: 2.9.41-3

The version of the libdmapsharing API found in the libdmapsharing packages
shipped by Debian is obsolete, and the versions of libdmapsharing that
provide it are incompatible with libsoup3. Since more applications are
requiring libsoup3, and libsoup3 cannot exist with libsoup2 in the same
process, Debian should move to libdmapsharing-3.9.12+ in its upcoming
release. Libdmapsharing-3.9.12+ makes use of libsoup3. The packages
that use libdmapsharing include Rhythmbox and grilo-plugins, and both
recently moved to libsoup3:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/grilo-plugins/-/commit/ae34da2264eab49eceaeeb0d1510b952a65ae030

The 3.9 series of libdmapsharing is available at:
