I do not understand the hurry.  Do you plan to remove the old libmpc
package?  The Debian shared library policy guarantees that older
package continue to work/build (with older SO versions) even when a
new API of a library gets uploaded.  Please explain how this bug
report relates to the Debian shared library policy.
