Upstream release its source as 'postgis'. The maintainer would like to provide a package for version 0.9.2 an a package for version 1.0.4. He renamed the postgis-0.9.2 in 'postgis0' and postgis-1.0.4 in 'postigs1' and now he create many binary packages that keep a '0' or '1' in their names. I proposed to only change the name of 0.9.2 and keep 1.0.4 as postigs, but the maintainer will was different. No special reason, i think. I am putting him in bcc so he may provide more information. > I guess the binary package has changed names from libpostgis1-pg74 to > libpostgis1-pg7.4, and this covers us for the C++ ABI transition? The binary package keep the same name since it already included the '1'. The library name is liblwgeom.so.1 for 1.0.4 (no change) and libpostgis.so.0 for 0.9.2 (new library). There is probably no change for a real transition since the old package had FTBFS bugs and hence it wasn't used that much. Some user where subscribed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and already tested the new package and developed an upgrade path.
