Package: release.debian.org Severity: normal Tags: trixie X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected] Control: affects -1 + src:libgpiod User: [email protected] Usertags: pu
[ Reason ] libgpiod3 incorrectly declares Breaks/Replaces on libgpiod2 and libgpiod2t64, preventing co-installation of different SONAME versions. This violates Debian library packaging policy. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1110868 [ Impact ] While official packages are unaffected, users with proprietary Debian packaging which depends on libgpiod2 may encounter difficulties during migration. [ Tests ] testing using chroots: - Bookworm → Trixie upgrade with Debian packages which depend on libgpiod2 - Bookworm-backports → Trixie upgrade scenario - Trixie stable update scenario All scenarios confirmed no dependency conflicts and successful operation. [ Risks ] Minimal risk - only removes incorrect constraints that shouldn't exist. [ Checklist ] [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] Remove the extraneous Breaks/Replaces declarations from debian/control to allow proper library co-installation [ Other info ]
