Description Lars Wendler (Polynomial-C) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2020-08-19 08:54:09 UTC
dev-libs/libxmlb-0.2.0 has been pushed to portage. The NEWS file of that release contains the following information:

Important:
 - This release breaks API and ABI and bumps the version of libxmlb.so and so
   packages that depend on this library (e.g. fwupd or gnome-software) will need
   to be rebuilt at the same time.

So I've added a sub-slot to the package starting with 0.2.0 version. I suppose gnome-extra/gnome-software should either make use of the sub-slot dep or limit dependency to <0.2.0 versions.
