Hi,

I am looking into starting the transition listed at
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/auto-zxing-cpp.html .

libzxingcore-dev -> libzxing-dev
libzxingcore1    -> libzxing1

The library SONAME did not change. However, the library binary package names
were changed to match with library filename, as suggested by upstream.

With library package and library dev package rename, I have set up the
transitional package libzxingcore-dev for seamless transition. To complete the
transition, binNMUs would be enough. The adjustment of build-dep requires
sourceful upload, which can be done after this transition is done.

I have tested that all reverse dependencies build fine.

That's not what transitions are for. If the library with that SONAME was
packaged as libzxingcore1 and there was no ABI break, that package needs
to stay around. Changing that makes upgrades to the next stable release
more complicated for cosmetic reasons. I would suggest to wait with the
clean up until the next SONAME bump.

If you want to clean it up, the usual rules for transitional packages
apply. See also #998160.

Cheers
