Looked a bit into this and it seems like the libsphinxclient-packages were part of an Ubuntu-delta in 2.0.4-1.1ubuntu1 and 2.0.4-1.1ubuntu2 (see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sphinxsearch/+publishinghistory for an overview). Then, during the development of Ubuntu 16.04, version 2.2.9-1 was synced from Debian and the delta was dropped.
I couldn't find a sync request bug report or more details on why these binary packages were dropped when a newer version was synced. doko, seems like you did the sync, so I've taken the liberty of subscribing you to this issue in case you have some more details about this issue. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1652903 Title: No libsphinxclient Package in xenial To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sphinxsearch/+bug/1652903/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
