100% compatibility except on soname changes, as it should be (I am a bit
surprised, but not unhappy).
I wonder how the percenmtages are calculated, though, isn't a changed soname
a 0% ABI backward compatibility, or are soname changes excepted?
Also, I note that this ABI report seems to be solely about exported
symbols, other ABI changes are not checked (for example, when a symbol
in a header file changes it's value and/or meaning - at least the former
could be tracked automatically, although does not always result in an ABI
change).
Or is this considered to be in the header diff? I see that the header diff
also shows differences in comments only (such as a year change in the
copyright notice), which doesn't look so helpful.
Lastly, what about internal, header-only symbols? They might be exported, but
are not part of the official ABI.
In any case, these questions are mostly meant for you - if all is withing
design parameters, then you don't have to bother with them and ignore me, I
don't have any outstanding issues with this tool.
