libunistring0 break gettext

[brummer]

The latest version of libunistring0 ( 0.9.6-1.1) break's gettext  /usr/bin/msgfmt, which is needed when you build your own apps with translations via gettext. Error message is then:

Code Auswählen Erweitern

/usr/bin/msgfmt: error while loading shared libraries: libunistring.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

downgrade to the version from tessting solve the issue

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt-get install  libunistring0=0.9.3-5.2+b1

Thanks for the warning, brummer!

A fixed package is incoming and probably will be available after the current dinstall run (in ~90 Minutes or 16:00h UTC). Technically the fix is a downgrade packaged with a higher version number.
