We would like to release a new apt that brings a ton of improvements but also breaks the ABI (and has some small API change that affects aptitude and packagekit, see below). We prepared the package in experimental and double checked the rdepends in an ubuntu PPA. There are some small and mostly internal API changes as well. The affected packages were aptitude, synaptic and packagekit. All of those have fixes ready for libapt-pkg5.0. Synaptic just needs a rebuild, aptitude and packagekit are ready for upload and will get uploaded by their maintainers once apt is in unstable. Thanks, Michael Ben file: title = "apt"; is_affected = .depends ~ /libapt-pkg4.16|libapt-inst1.7/ | .depends ~ "libept1.4 .16" | .depends ~ /libapt-pkg5.0|libapt-inst2.0|libept1.5.0/; is_good = .depends ~ /libapt-pkg5.0|libapt-inst2.0|libept1.5.0/; is_bad = .depends ~ /libapt-pkg4.16|libapt-inst1.7/ | .depends ~ "libept1.4.16"; -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64)
