Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.15.3.1 Severity: important Hi,
In elfutils, I have a debian/libelf1.symbols that looks like this: libelf.so.1 libelf1 #MINVER# *...@elfutils_1.0 0.131 *...@elfutils_1.1 0.131 *...@elfutils_1.1.1 0.131 *...@elfutils_1.2 0.131 *...@elfutils_1.3 0.131 *...@elfutils_1.4 0.132 And I call: dpkg-gensymbols -Pdebian/libelf1/ -plibelf1 -c4 But the latest upstream version (0.142) added new symbols. The diff of the map file: +ELFUTILS_1.5 { + global: + elf_getshdrnum; elf_getshdrstrndx; +} ELFUTILS_1.4; The documentation says that -c2 should fail if new symbols got added, but it doesn't for me. The elf_getshdrnum and elf_getshdrstrndx are new in the version. debian/libelf1/DEBIAN/symbols contains those lines: elfutils_...@elfutils_1.5 0.142-1 elf_getshdr...@elfutils_1.5 0.142-1 elf_getshdrstr...@elfutils_1.5 0.142-1 It's great that it added them to the symbol file, and they're currently the correct version, but I was expecting an error.
