Yes, symbol versioning requires the same level of discipline as the more constrained library version number bumping. If we have decided that our developers are too incompetent to properly bump library versions for ABI changes then they are also too incompetent to handle symbol versioning. Furthermore, even with the massive library bumps, we have still stuck our collective heads in the sand and ignored all the port library version numbers. In theory they should all be bumped for 5 -> 6 as well. -- John Baldwin <jhb_at_FreeBSD.org> <>< http://www.FreeBSD.org/~jhb/ "Power Users Use the Power to Serve" = http://www.FreeBSD.orgReceived on Wed Sep 21 2005 - 18:44:34 UTC
