KDE Spectacle breaks with libkimageannotator0 0.4.0-1

[dpanter]

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=977649
TLDR: workaround with a symlink for now, quick oneliner for convenience:

Code: [Select]

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkImageAnnotator.so.0.4.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkImageAnnotator.so.0.3.2
Bug report: the new version of kimageannotator bumps the SONAME of the shared library from libkImageAnnotator.so.0.3.2 to libkImageAnnotator.so.0.4.0, which is a big no-no. This also means that
kimageannotator sets the SONAME of its shared library to the full version number, basically breaking compatibility even in patch releases; this is _bad_...
Oof.

For reference:

Code: [Select]

$ spectacle
spectacle: error while loading shared libraries: libkImageAnnotator.so.0.3.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Code: [Select]

$ locate libkImageAnnotator.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkImageAnnotator.so.0.4.0

Code: [Select]

$ apt-file search libkImageAnnotator.so

libkimageannotator0: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libkImageAnnotator.so.0.4.0

Code: [Select]

$ apt list -a libkimageannotator0
libkimageannotator0/unstable,now 0.4.0-1 amd64 [installed,automatic]
libkimageannotator0/testing 0.3.2-2 amd64
