I don't think this is a duplicate. Now jsoncpp seems to have a proper versioning.
bug 1464853 it had a symbols file, now it has been removed in flavour to shlibs, since upstream strictly follows versioning rules and checks now. Quoting the lintian-overrides file: # This is a C++ project, we use .shlibs instead # API/ABI compatiblity is watched tediously upstream. # Report: http://upstream.rosalinux.ru/versions/jsoncpp.html no-symbols-control-file ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1218220 [MIR] libjsoncpp -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1461517 Title: [MIR] libjsoncpp To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libjsoncpp/+bug/1461517/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
