Bug 833355 – app-crypt/gpgme: ABI breakage in 1.17.0? causing crashes in kde-apps/kmail

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Sam James 2022-02-14 20:17:44 UTC]

Created attachment 765109 [details]
eoldnew (abidiff) report between 1.16.0 and 1.17.0

In #gentoo-kde on IRC, dilfridge reported crashes with kmail recently.

It looks like 1.17.0 broke ABI. Please revbump and change the subslot. I suggest adding a comment to check ABI on bumps (using e.g. app-portage/iwdevtools and its libabigail integration).

Unfortunately, Lars is being childish as soon as sam files a bug and then decides to let it rot away. @Lars, if you don't revbump the subslot, QA will do it in 24 hours.

    app-crypt/gpgme: [QA] update 1.17.0 subslot for ABI breakage
    
    - Update subslot to trigger rebuilds of consumers for ABI breakage. SONAME
      didn't change but this has led to crashes in e.g. KMail and other software,
      and could result in other unpredictable runtime issues, which is particularly
      dangerous for core software and libraries.
    
    - Make subslot represent all 3 libraries installed (libgpgme, libgpgmepp,
      libqgpgme).
