[arch-general] What's happening about libdjvu?
Hi, The package djvulibre now conflicts and provides libdjvu, and libdjvu disappeared from the repository. However, judging by the files they provide and the PKGBUILD cached in my abs directory, I don't think they are the same thing. djvulibre does not provide the dynamic linked library as libdjvu does and thus may break other application depending on libdjvu. For instance, /usr/lib/evince/3/backends/libdjvudocument.so from evince package links to /usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so.21, which would be removed if I update the system to allow djvulibre to replace libdjvu. What's happened to the libdjvu package? Why is it removed from repository? Should I file a bug report? Best Regards,

This is false, the djvulibre package contains this library.

Best Regards,
that is replacing libdjvu and nothing that you say above is true. pacman -Ql djvulibre | grep libdjvulibre.so djvulibre /usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so djvulibre /usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so.21 djvulibre /usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so.21.2.0 this means that /usr/lib/evince/3/backends/libdjvudocument.so is not broken because djvulibre provides the same soname -- Ionuț

The new package looks to contain that library to me... [allan@gerolde ~]$ tar -tf /srv/ftp/extra/os/i686/djvulibre-3.5.23-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz | grep usr/lib usr/lib/ usr/lib/pkgconfig/ usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so.21.2.0 usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so usr/lib/libdjvulibre.so.21 usr/lib/pkgconfig/ddjvuapi.pc
