Hi,
There is a new upstream version of libunistring: 0.9.4. I have created
the new packages, but I have not uploaded them yet.
In the new version there is a version bump of the dll,
cygunistring-0.dll will be replaced with cygunistring-2.dll. So I expect
that when I upload the new packages, all packages that depend on
libunistring will break.
How is this normally handled?
Should I just upload the new packages?
leave old libunistring0 in place with all the 0.9.3-2 packages
Create new libunistring2 package for the new dll.
So new compilation will use libunistring2 and current programs
will continue to use libunistring0
See as example libglpkXX on
https://www.cygwin.com/packages/
I know one package that depends on libunistring: wcd. Jari Aalto
maintains it, but he is not responding.
How can I find all the packages that depend on libunistring?
looks on setup.ini (for both 32bit and 64bit)
There are ~ 4 packages
regards,
Ciao
