[mir] libimobiledevice should be promoted in lucid

[Julien Lavergne (gilir)]

Please note that adoption on Debian is in progress, waiting for sponsors to proceed all the packages of the stack (libplist, usbmuxd, libiphone and ifuse). It takes some time due to SONAME bump and packaging changes which need check from FTP master.

[Alexander Sack (asac)]

+ IMPORTANT: needs abi tracking facilities (aka .symbols)
+ needs desktop team bug subscription
+ desktop team should also claim responsible for issues unrelated to gvfs in MIR (its conditional in the MIR report) - rational: if something is in main we cannot really restrict its use there.
+ dpkg-shlibdeps complains about needless depends/linkage, please check and if appropriate fix that:
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libusb-1.0.so.0 could be avoided if "debian/libiphone0/usr/lib/libiphone.so.0.0.0" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on librt.so.1 could be avoided if "debian/libiphone0/usr/lib/libiphone.so.0.0.0" were not uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).

so discussed with seb, the following will be done and is good for main inclusion:
 1. add ABI tracking facility (symbols or shlibs)
 2. subscribe desktop team to bugs
 3. check the missing symbol warning: symbol gcry_control used by debian/libiphone0/usr/lib/libiphone.so.0.0.0 found in none of the libraries.

[Loïc Minier (lool)]

Would be nice if libiphone-dev versioned the deps on the other -dev libs with the same versions as the build-deps. Dropping the *.la files (well stripping their dependency_libs= rather) would be great too.

Also, I think maintenance in Debian is okay; Julien Lavergne just picked this up apparently, and he maintains the rest of the stack (well) already.

[Julien Lavergne (gilir)]

I'll add the symbol file for the next upload.
Also, for the needless depends/linkage, patches and tests are in progress. I don't know why it complains about symbol gcry_control missing, it's only triggered by Ubuntu compiler.

[Julien Lavergne (gilir)]

FYI, libiphone was renamed libimobiledevice, and is available on Sid.
gvfs was updated in git (http://git.gnome.org/browse/gvfs/commit/?id=3f3f130072c94e38d6f07ef37d425a1c86bddd29).

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

I synced libimobiledevice and removed libiphone from the archive.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

symbols file is okay now, and I subscribed desktop-bugs to bug reports. Approved.

Looks like the FTBFS is due to not building -doc on anything but i386. (It built fine on i386)

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Julien, since this affects Debian as well, I suppose you'll just fix it there?

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

FTBFS got fixed (in Ubuntu for now), approved.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

libgpod build-depends on libimobiledevice-dev now, closing the bug
