Package: libsane1
Severity: serious

Hi,

libsane was renamed to libsane1 for apparently no good reason.  Renames
for library packages should be tied to ABI breakage (and associated
SONAME changes).

Either there was ABI breakage and the SONAME should be bumped (and
Provides: libsane would be wrong), or there wasn't and the package name
change ought to be reverted.

I don't know which it is, and when I asked I didn't get a clear answer,
so I'll ask again here.

Cheers,
Julien

We are not back.

Between 1.0.30 and 1.0.31 are the following 7 symbols are not longer available:

#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_append_commands_node@Base 1.0.29
#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_known_commands_input_failed@Base 1.0.29
#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_last_known_seq@Base 1.0.29
#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_record_backend@Base 1.0.29
#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_xml_doc@Base 1.0.29
#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_xml_next_tx_node@Base 1.0.29
#MISSING: 1.0.31# testing_xml_path@Base 1.0.29

This ABI changes are not backward-compatible. And so the change are required. 

Therefore I close this bug.
