[pkg-gnupg-maint] Bug#1080471: transition: libassuan

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Control: affects -1 + src:libassuan
User: release.debian.org at packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition

libassuan had a soname bump. The new release (3.x) is API (upwards)
compatible. There where some minor hickups causing build-errors [1] but
afaict we have resolved them. BinNMUs of rdeps should now be sufficient.

It probably makes sense to delay this until gpgme1.0 >= 1.18.0-6 has
propagated to testing to avoid coupling this transitions with the
python3-setuptools update (See #1079928).

Ben file:

title = "libassuan";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libassuan0" | .depends ~ "libassuan9";
is_good = .depends ~ "libassuan9";
is_bad = .depends ~ "libassuan0";

[1]
* The new release drops /usr/bin/libassuan-config.
* The api_version= field in pkg-config data was also bumped from 2 to 3.
Both required changes to autoconf scripts and similar stuff in rdeps.
