Description

There was an ABI break in libidn-1.34/1.35, so the soname of the library has changed. Ideally, the application should be rebuilt against the new version. If it doesn't use the stringprep features of libidn, a symlink pointing to the new version could work. Acrobat can't be recompiled - there are no sources and there will be no new version available. Libraries can't just randomly change their ABI and pretend they are same libraries - clearly the main point of library upgrade is - to preserve ABI and fix bugs. So if there is unavoidable change for new library user - you can still use symbol versioning. But this also means - library has to provide compatible function for older compiled binaries. Also there is NO 100% replacement for Adobe Acrobat on linux - so IMHO worth to keep it installable. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 29 development cycle. Changing version to '29'. *** Bug 1646343 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 1646699 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** libidn1.34-1.34-1.fc29 has been submitted as an update to Fedora 29. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2018-fd7095527b libidn1.34-1.34-1.fc29 has been pushed to the Fedora 29 stable repository.
