It turns out that the published public interface of libfam as specified in fam(3) is purely in C (that is, C++ is used only internally), so libfam remains binary compatible across the g++ ABI change. This observation was pointed out to me only very recently, otherwise maybe we could have avoided the package name change altogether. See http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2005/08/msg00090.html for discussions related to this change. -- Chuan-kai Lin http://www.cs.pdx.edu/~cklin/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
