Re: [arch-dev-public] Packages added to todo list 'Remove libjpeg from depends/makedepends/optdepends and use shared object dependency'
David, following the concerns raised on IRC [1], is this todo getting canceled? [1] no prior discussion, library with stable soname, prioritization and scalability of adding sodeps to more packages

Yes. If anyone is still interested in depending on the package rather than a manual virtual dependency (so that it can be removed), it is as easy as switching from "libjpeg" to "libjpeg-turbo". If you would like to depend on the shared object instead/also: The information on how to do that is in the mail you have received. Closing I would like to add, that I found the aggressiveness of the "conversation" that was held nothing short of off-putting. As a community we have to strive for discussing things on a technical level without reverting to personal attacks, generalization and rage. Best, David -- https://sleepmap.de
