[Pkg-pascal-devel] Bug#1019310: castle-game-engine: Please build-depend on libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev instead of libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev

[Simon McVittie]

Source: castle-game-engine
Version: 7.0~alpha.1+dfsg-8
Severity: normal
User: pkg-gnome-maintainers at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: split-gdk-pixbuf

In Debian 10 and older, the libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev package contained
development files for two libraries: gdk-pixbuf-2.0 and the deprecated
gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0.

In Debian 11, it was split into libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev and
libgdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0-dev packages. libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev continues to
exist, but is now a transitional package that pulls in the deprecated
libgdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0-dev in addition to libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev.

If libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev is sufficient to build this package,
please swap the build-dependency on libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev to refer to
libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev instead. That change will avoid this package having
to be removed from Debian if gdk-pixbuf-xlib gets removed.

If this package also needs the deprecated gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0
(unlikely), please build-depend on both libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-dev and
libgdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0-dev explicitly, instead of via the transitional
package libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev.

Thanks,
