Depends: in osmocom packages
Added by keith over 2 years ago.
Updated about 1 year ago.
Description
After the recent release, doing something like
apt install osmo-sgsn
on a Debian system (with opensuse repos) will leave osmo-sgsn unexpectedly broken as libgtp6 will not be updated, leaving osmo-sgsn without required symbols.
pabs3 on IRC says:
see the dh_makeshlibs and deb-shlibs manual pages,
basically put "libgtp 6 libgtp6 (>= 1.8.0)" in debian/libgtp6.shlibs in osmo-ggsn.git
also do the soname check using abipkgdiff/pkg-abidiff
shlibs is the older brute-force mechanism, there is also the newer one based on symbols,
where things that use a library get a depends on the version of the library that has all
the symbols that they use.
thats more complicated though and means maintaining a list of exported symbols and the
versions they appeared in
the symbols stuff has the advantage of more relaxed dependencies for most things using a library

I've installed osmo-sgsn from Debian repositories on Debian 11 in docker and reproduced the problem. Additionally I found that osmo-libasn1c from Debian conflicts with libasn1c from our repositories.
Patches:
With these, the upgrade works as expected (libgtp6 gets upgraded too, and osmo-libasn1c gets removed in favor of libasn1c):
