Package: cxxtest Version: 4.4+git171022-1 Hi,
I could not find information about this behavior change. cxxtest has historically a limitation with TS_ASSERT_EQUALS/TS_ASSERT_DIFFERS, which validates the following test: char str[] = "toto"; char* str2 = strdup(str); TS_ASSERT_EQUALS(str, str2); TS_ASSERT_DIFFERS(str, str2); With the new Git snapshot, this test now does not pass. Whether this is a sensible result or not, this breaks existing testsuites, AFAICS without notice from the package or the maintainer (the ChangeLog is still from 4.4), nor a way to determine the cxxtest variant (release/snapshot) installed by the end user. Could you document the reason why Debian ships a Git snapshot rather than an official release? In addition, do you think it is better to revert the Debian version, document this behavior change, or check with upstream how to implement an upgrade plan? Cheers! Sylvain
