Thank you! Debian also already accepted this from the NEW queue (because a new soname -> new libpackage name) into 'unstable' and several arches have already built it. | And sorry about all the different libprotobufs. Bumping the soname for | every release is pretty ugly but given the complexity of the protobuf | interface (particularly the interface between protoc-generated code and the | runtime library) there just isn't any other option. Yes, while it looks a little ugly it really is the only proper way to deal with it. Which also means that I was wrong in not updating the soname at our end at my first build, but many of my peers reminded me of that in no uncertain terms. Anyhow, all better now, and thanks from us to you upstream for your prompt help!
