I am the upstream author and Debian Maintainer of notcurses. The 2.0.0 release
included an soname bump to 2, though there were actually no ABI changes in this
release. Rather, the soname bump was to indicate that Notcurses was finally
shipping a stable API, as it had changed pretty wildly during 1.x development.
Notcurses will commit to backwards compatibility through the 2.x cycle.
As I am only a DM (as opposed to a full DD), I couldn't upload to experimental
myself. Due to some communication breakdowns, Debian had an out-of-date
notcurses for more time than I was comfortable with; eventually (shortly after
the 2.0.4 release), I added a patch to fix the soname at 1, and successfully
uploaded notcurses-2.0.4+dfsg.1-1 to unstable.
Philipp Kern was then kind enough to step in and sponsor the libnotcurses2
upload, which is now in experimental as 2.0.4+dfsg.1-3. Any reverse dep running
successfully with libnotcurses1 2.0.4+dfsg.1-1 ought work exactly the same when
rebuilt against libnotcurses2 2.0.4+dfsg.1-3 (without changes).
There are only two reverse-deps:
* growlight 1.2.19, which I maintain
* snd 20.8-2, maintained by the Debian Multimedia Team. I've contacted them to
let them know about the upcoming transition. I expect no problems with the
package.
