Suggested options include:A) Consider the new ABI to be "right". Recompile every package that mentions the affected structs (including everything that subclasses GstElement), unless it has already been compiled against GLib 2.32 on every architecture. +: Every frequently-uploaded package, including large ones like Webkit, Qt and the Mozilla suite, have already been compiled against GLib 2.32 in practice anyway. The most significant exception that I noticed is GStreamer 0.10, which is where wenoticed this ABI break: the problem is that "core" GStreamer hasnot been recompiled since, but some packages that subclass its objects have. -: Binaries built against squeeze's GLib on the affected architectures will break, in relatively rare circumstances[2]. We have to recompile up to 227 source packages.
I think this is basically what was suggested in <[email protected]>, with the negative point being addressed by adding Breaks: for those cases we can identify.
