Hi Tobias,
I noticed that this ITS bug has been sitting without any activity for
the past 2 years. I needed libconfig 1.7 for a new release of picom, so
I went ahead and prepared a new version which I've been using locally
for some time now. I wanted to reach out and see if you still plan on
working on this. If not, I can go ahead and do an NMU and drive the
transition, or you're welcome to base your work on my[1] update if you'd
like.
I did a test rebuild of all the rdeps and looks like the transition
should be smooth.
