[Pkg-phototools-devel] libgphoto2 uploaded

[Cyril Brulebois]

Hi,

I finally got some time to finish preparing the libgphoto2 upload. I've
also forced the update on the alioth git server, but AFAICT, I've been
the only one to work on it lately, so that should be quite harmless, at
least so I hope (and I'm sorry for any inconvenience).

Since the symbols didn't change at all, I've modified the packaging so
that the shlibs aren't bumped, see [1]. I'm quite confident it's
correct, but if you have any concerns about it, I'm all hears, and ready
to fix anything that might have been broken because of that.

 1. http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-phototools/libgphoto2.git;a=commitdiff;h=6aadf29a4b7644a63f3feefc30677e7850faf369

I've got some other packages to take care of, especially hugin, before
the freeze comes too close, but I hope to be able to walk through the
list of open bugs against libgphoto2 and forward them upstream as
needed quite soon. I'm not sure we'll be able to fix a bunch of them
before the release, but at least bug triaging will finally be done.

As a side note, I dropped (as agreed with some rdepends and with
Frederic) the .la files under /usr/lib. Last rebuild tests shown no
breakage, but that was some time ago. I'll notify (right now) the
maintainers of reverse dependencies of this change, and possibly have a
rebuild round once I'm done with other packages. AFAICT, a possibly
breakage wouldn't do much harm since all rdepends have the same version
in unstable and in testing at the time of this writing.

Mraw,
KiBi.
