Package: libgd2-xpm-dev Version: 2.1.0-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Creating a nodejs package relying on libgd2-xpm-dev lead me to look into the details of /usr/include/gd.h. I noticed that in that file, /usr/include/gd.h, the version naming contradicts. GD_VERSION_STRING says "2.1.1-dev" while in the lines above it, GD_RELEASE_VERSION is 0, which would assume that GD_VERSION_STRING would be "2.1.0-dev". I noticed this because I wanted to distinguish between libgd2 versions in my package node-gd, but that I kept getting errors because some functions appeared not to be available. I've decided to rely on the combination of GD_MAJOR_VERSION, GD_MINOR_VERSION and GD_RELEASE_VERSION instead of relying on GD_VERSION_STRING. Also, gdlib-config outputs GD_VERSIONS_STRING, so it's actually lying about its version and hence about its capabilities. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libgd2-xpm-dev depends on: ii libgd-dev 2.1.0-5 libgd2-xpm-dev recommends no packages. libgd2-xpm-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
