Package: re2 Could you please upload a newer version of re2 to unstable? The current version in experimental is over a year old already and I need it as a build-depends for lmctfy.

Hi Daniel (2013.10.28_12:01:14_+0200) Could you please upload a newer version of re2 to unstable? The current version in experimental is over a year old already and I need it as a build-depends for lmctfy. re2 has no stable ABI guarantees. So, we have two options for including it in unstable. 1. static library only (with Built-Using). 2. Manage our own ABI. Changes are becoming very infrequent, and we could probably get away with changing the ABI once a year. Thoughts?

(not saying that is a good way, but jftr, there is also:) 3. have it like like ntfs-3g (Provides: libntfs-3g-$SONAME) and testdisk (Depends: libntfs-3g-$SONAME). Thoughts? if 2. is not too big a pain for you to keep track of (or, unless it becomes one at some future point), i'd go with 2. -- Address:Daniel Baumann, Donnerbuehlweg 3, CH-3012 Bern Email: daniel.baum...@progress-technologies.net Internet: http://people.progress-technologies.net/~daniel.baumann/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi Daniel (2013.10.28_12:47:45_+0200) 3. have it like like ntfs-3g (Provides: libntfs-3g-$SONAME) and testdisk (Depends: libntfs-3g-$SONAME). That wouldn't really be appropriate for a library package. Only a library bundled with an application. if 2. is not too big a pain for you to keep track of (or, unless it becomes one at some future point), i'd go with 2. Yeah, it's probably what I'll do.
