tag 447735 wontfix thanks Thanks for the report. While I recognize the seriousness of accidental ABI changes (in fact, my start in Debian was managing a tiff transition caused by just this issue), I don't think there was ever any guarantee that this type of breakage wouldn't occur between d01 and the final 3.8 release. If this were an update to unstable, I'd back it out or otherwise take some corrective action, but for this particular instance, I think the best course of action would be to simply rebuild any affected packages. I definitely don't want to modify the debian ICU packages to use a different soname because of an incompatibility introduced that was confined to the experimental release and that occurred between a prerelease and the final release. Since there is no transition from experimental to unstable, there is no risk of contaminating unstable or testing because of this problem.
