This page coordinates the efforts to transition to the new freetype ABI and API introduced in 2.1.10-1.

The following is a list of packages which depend on libfreetype6, but do not build-depend on it. This should be avoided, see ?SteveLangasek's [http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/11/msg00016.html email] on the matter for more background, and information on how to help fix the issues. (The same issues arise with dependencies on other libraries, such as libaudio2; please try to remove as many bogus library dependencies as you can at once.)

If you are working on a package, please claim it adding your name at the end of the line, in parenthesis. When a fix is ACCEPTed in the archive, please mark it with [DONE].

If you can help analyse what needs to be done for each package, please add a note next to the package name with indications so others know what to do more easily.

Bugs filed for this transition should be [http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2005/09/msg00002.html usertagged]. Tag: extradeps-libfreetype6, user: debian-release@lists.debian.org. The list of such bugs can be accessed via http://people.debian.org/~adeodato/release-usertag/extradeps-libfreetype6.

Useful things

• [http://people.debian.org/~keybuk/libtool-updating.html libtool updating HOWTO]

  • find neccessary versions in one command:

    • find . -name ltmain.sh -print0 | xargs -0 grep -H ^VERSION= && head -1 Makefile.in && grep Generated configure | head -1

  • Update libtoolage with one command:

    • libtoolize --copy --force && aclocal-VERSION && autoconf

  • find mentions of libtool in the source
    • rgrep -il libtool .

• There are cases when relibtoolizing will not help, e.g. if a package uses libtool convenience libraries (non-empty noinst_LTLIBRARIES in some Makefile.am), since libtool is not able to prune unneeded libraries for them. ?KurtRoeckx is working on a patch to address this.

• All the packages maintained by the Debian Qt/KDE Maintainers are already relibtoolized, and those that appear in the list below (marked "KDE") do suffer the above mentioned bug about convenience libs. The maintainers are aware of this, and are waiting on Kurt's patch.
