Dear release team,

I and Pierre Gruet (pgt@d.o) would like to transition ceres-solver to the new
SOVERSION (3).

The upstream changed the SOVERSION of the package without changing the major
version number (2.1.0). That's why we missed this ABI change, and Pierre
reverted the upload by uploading a new package with the +really suffix
(2.1.0+really2.0.0).
Upstream does not follow semantic versioning and confirmed that this behavior
is intentional [1].
So, a transition process is needed for the Debian package to handle this
SOVERSION update.

All reverse dependencies are building fine at least on amd64 [2].

Best Regards,
François

Ben file:

title = "ceres-solver";
is_affected = .depends ~ "libceres2" | .depends ~ "libceres3";
is_good = .depends ~ "libceres3";
is_bad = .depends ~ "libceres2";

Control: tags -1 confirmed

This transition clashes with the ongoing onetbb through openturns, however those
two have already migrated to testing so that shouldn't be a blocker.

That link doesn't tell me if the rdeps build against the new SONAME. Have you
tested that? If so, go ahead.

Cheers,
Emilio

Thanks for looking at this transition bug. Yes, I can confirm I
successfully built the rdeps against the new SONAME a few days ago.

So François will go ahead within the upcoming days.

Best,

This transition is done.
