Bug#951053: transition: libmysofa

[IOhannes m zmoelnig <umlaeute@debian.org>]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: transition

The new upstream of libmysofa comes with a soname bump from libmysofa.so.0 to
libmysofa.so.1
consequently the binary package in Debian has to be renamed from libmysofa0 to
libmysofa1.

This has a direct impact on the following packages:
- ffmpeg
- libspatialaudio
and an indirect impact on vlc (which depends on libspatialaudio).

I've done test-builds of ffmpeg and libspatialaudio and everything looks good.

This is not very suprising, as there was no actual reason for upstream to bump
the soname (no API/ABI breakage).
I've had a brief discussion with upstream about semantic versioning, but
since the API of the library has been stable for a lengthy period, *and* the
library is used by high-profile multimedia applications (ffmpeg, vlc), we
agreed that the library should leave its alpha-stage and get a *stable* soname.

Thanks for scheduling a transition slot.
