Package: geoclue Version: 0.12.99-2ubuntu6 Severity: normal Geoclue 2.0 is a complete rewrite that introduced an entirely new and simplified API. This new API is not compatible with the old API and further many features in geoclue 0.12 are not available in the new API. It really would be non-trivial to port all the rdepends to the new API, as there will some rdepends that use features not in the new API.
It would be good to package geoclue in a new source package 'geoclue-2.0' so it can exist in parallel, rather than just replacing the old version as was done in experimental packaging. There is some further info about the rewrite here: http://www.hadess.net/2013/04/geocluing-desktop-slowly.html -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers trusty APT policy: (500, 'trusty') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.12.0-7-generic (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages geoclue depends on: ii dconf-gsettings-backend [gsettings-backend] 0.18.0-1 ii libc6 2.18-0ubuntu2 ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.100.2-1 ii libgeoclue0 0.12.99-2ubuntu6 ii libglib2.0-0 2.39.2-0ubuntu1 ii libnm-glib4 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu1~trusty2 ii libnm-util2 0.9.8.8-0ubuntu1~trusty2 geoclue recommends no packages. geoclue suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
