Frank, George, I've pushed a new branch to alioth for this upload. The branch name is bobcat-gcc5abi. Please let know if you have any concerns, otherwise, I'll plan to upload the evening of August 11th (here in GMT-0700). Cheers, tony signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

Confirmed that public symbols are changing with the g++ 5 rebuild; a patch to rename the library package is available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bobcat/3.25.01-2ubuntu2 Thanks for the bug report. We're still working out how to handle this issue. The plan is to do an so bump to version 4 of the bobcat library. Some time ago (early August) Debian's experimental distro offered a g++ 5 release that indeed created a library in which the public symbols were changed. We think that bumping the so version, in line with an earlier e-mail by Matthias, effectively handlres the new symbols issue. However, by now the g++ 5 compiler no longer is available in Debian's experimental distribution, but only in Debian's stretch (testing) and sid(unstable) distros, and these compilers don't use the new naming conventions. Right now Tony and I are figuring out a strategy for handling this complication, but we're not done yet. This reaction is primarily to inform you that we're not ignoring the issue, but in fact are actively trying to find an adequate solution. You make it sound way more complicated than I believe it is... Hi Julien, Thanks so much for the patch. I'll be able to start on the rename/transition procedure in the next few days. Frank, I'll follow up with you before uploads. Cheers, tony -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
