They changed ABI without changing SONAME, which is an absolutely |
| 21 |
braid-dead thing for upstream to do, because it causes exactly this |
| 22 |
kind of breakage. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
revdep-rebuild is incapable of detecting this kind of breakage. Your |
| 25 |
linking will appear intact, but things will crash because the ABI |
| 26 |
changed. |

Everybody should be on the lookout for this update and carefully |
| 29 |
follow the forum post instructions to get through it. |
