Description Marek Kašík 2016-10-07 14:19:04 UTC 
Description of problem:
Currently if there is a soname bump in rpms I'm trying to compare with abipkgdiff the resulting log is like this:

Removed binaries:
  libpoppler.so.62.0.0, SONAME: libpoppler.so.62
Added binaries:
  0x7f3348000e10, SONAME: libpoppler.so.63

But I would be also interested in changes between those two versions even if there is the soname bump. This would be handy when I do rebases and look at what has changed.

Would it be possible to add a flag which would allow abipkgdiff to compare such packages?

Feel free to close this with resolution UPSTREAM (I don't have an account on
sourceware.org).

Thank you

This would still be nice to have.
