This would have caught simple errors like this one: $ lintian liblognorm1_1.1.1-0adiscon1trusty1_amd64.deb W: liblognorm1: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames liblognorm2 E: liblognorm1: symbols-file-contains-current-version-with-debian-revision on symbol descent_parser_data_constructor@Base and 73 others It looks, like the symbols file isn't properly maintained either. 2015-03-12 15:10 GMT+01:00 Michael Biebl <mbi...@gmail.com>: > Apparently, the liblognorm soname bump wasn't properly handled > packaging wise looking at > > https://launchpad.net/~adiscon/+archive/ubuntu/v8-stable/+packages > > Packaging (and maintaining) libraries takes special effort to be done > properly. > > Please have a look at > https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-sharedlibs.html > https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/advanced.en.html > https://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html > > 2015-03-12 15:05 GMT+01:00 Michael Biebl <mbi...@gmail.com>: >> I do hope, the Debian packages were updated accordingly, i.e. if there >> is a soname bump, you name it liblognorm2. >> So if you rebuild rsyslog against liblognorm-dev 1.1.1, it would get a >> dependency on liblognorm2.
