The last libxaw package (1.0.5-1) doesn't include version 8 of the
library.
This breaks some package in community.
Example binaries linked to libXaw.so.8:
· /usr/bin/lqtplay from libquicktime-1.0.3-2
· /usr/bin/FreeWRL_Message from freewrl-1.20.1-1
Should libxaw include libXaw8.a, libXaw8.so...? Or those packages need a
rebuild?
Side notes:
1. the libquicktime package doesn't depend on libxaw;
2. freewrl depends on libxaw; no version specified (it can't);
3. should libxaw package provide versioned libraries?
Also /usr/lib/libXaw.so from libxaw-1.0.4-1 linked to libXaw8.so; now
links to libXaw7.so.
bye
