[Pkg-ime-devel] Please hold uploading packages that depends on libscim8

Thu Nov 17 00:03:08 UTC 2005

Hi fellow maintainers,

As you should have read on debian-devel-announcement list [1], there is
another C++ ABI transition coming, and scim is involved.

During this transition, libscim8 will be renamed to libscim8c2a.  The
plan now seems to be binNMU all the packages that depend on the
transitioned library, so you do NOT need to do a new upload to fix it.

However, if you are planning to do a new upload soon, please hold.  Wait
until the new scim has been built on all arches (should be 1.4.2-1).
I'll send another notice when this is done.
