Hi,

libverto is involved with architecture cross bootstrap being a
dependency of krb5. The glib2.0 package was restructured and absorbed a
bit of gobject-introspection which proved notoriously difficult to make
work in a bootstrap setting. As a result, the glib2.0 packaging was
restructured again and adds a package libgio-2.0-dev that mostly
resembles what libglib2.0-dev was in bookworm. This smaller package
happens to be sufficient for building libverto and we cannot install
libglib2.0-dev in a bootstrap setting. As a result, I request reducing
the dependency.

Note that libgio-2.0-dev is a fairly new package. We intend to make
bookworm's libglib2.0-dev gain provides for it in the next pu to ease
backporting.

Helmut

Hello,

libverto seems in a slightly sorry state, so uploaded a NMU to
delayed/10 using dgit. I'm attaching the debdiff.

The upload tightens the dependency from libverto plugins on the libverto
library. It generally does not make sense to allow mixing packages built
from different versions of the same source packages in an installation.
Using (= ${binary:Version}) ensures that the plugins always use a
matching library.

The upload also demotes the glib dependency to gio. The glib packaging
was reorganized and now provides a smaller development package that
happens to be sufficient for libverto's use.

Bug #694449 argues about tightening the glib dependency, but it has
become so old by now that the version restriction would be met even in
oldoldstable already. We tend to drop such version constraints
eventually. Therefore, I am closing the bug right away. Additionally,
the reorganization of glib was way after 2.29, so once my NMU is in the
archive, the glib dependency is implicitly tightened.

Additionally, I would like to question Karsten whether #892593 still
applies after this NMU. Since the filing glib has changed heavily. It
now is multiarch coinstallable and due to the demoted glib dependency,
bootstrapping libverto with glib should just work. Karsten, do you agree
that #892593 can be closed without further action?

Please let me know if I should defer the upload any further.

Thanks

Helmut
