Hi Ivan, I would assume, as a minimum, the soname cannot change. GNUstep does have a habit of incrementing the soname with MINOR release number bumps, even if the ABI remains unchanged.
For example, Debian's current version of GNUstep base in testing is 1.24.9, and the package name is libgnustep-base1.24. If a new, 1.25 release, is pushed out, the new package name would be libgnustep-base1.25, and likely not accepted.

(I'd go through the list of changes before the release.) Any easy way to test whether Debian will consider API/ABI breakage has happened, which we could then add to the release docs? _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list Gnustep-dev@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
