• Should we drop t64 library suffic after soversion bump?

    From Markus Blatt@21:1/5 to All on Sun Sep 29 19:20:01 2024
    Hi,

    if a package was part of the t64 transition then the library now has
    a t64 suffix added.

    How should one proceed if there is a new version of that software that needs
    a bump in the soversion. Should I keep the t64 suffix or drop it.

    This is about alberta, which currently has libalberta4t64 and I am wondering whether I should use libalberta5t64 or simply libalberta5.

    I guess the following line in control should stay, right?

    Provides: ${t64:Provides}

    Best,

    Markus

    You should drop it.

    No, it doesn't make sense to provide the package name.
