Package: libc-ares1
Version: 1.5.1-0
Severity: minor
The 1.5.1 release of c-ares upstream bumped the major soversion from 1
to 2. However, the packaging was not updated to reflect this, leading to
the anomalous situation that libc-ares1 contains /usr/lib/libcares.so.2.
This is a violation of a "should" from the Library Packaging Guide, and
Lintian picks this up as a warning.
This means that any package built against the 1.4.1 version of
libc-ares-dev will in fact mysteriously start failing when the installed
version of libc-ares1 is upgraded to 1.5.1, and the file disappears.
I've filed this as minor because presumably no packages are suffering
from the above problem, which is lucky. There was a fortnight where it
was possible to fall over this, according to [1]. If there was such a
package suffering this, then I assume there would be such a bug against
c-ares already.
[1] http://packages.qa.debian.org/c/c-ares.html
This issue also affects users looking for the library for third-party
apps. If a program is looking for libcares.so.2 according to ldd, then
usually one would try to install package libcares2 to resolve this. Of
course, this assumption is already broken by the soname libcares
differing from the package name libc-ares, but I'm assuming that a good
reason for this difference already exists. (Although I don't see a
README.Debian or similar in the installed packages documenting this.)
