Summary

Audit and verify compatibility with current library versions on Debian, Ubuntu, and Arch Linux. Ensure tests pass with both stable and rolling-release package versions.

Motivation

Rolling-release distributions and testing branches may ship newer library versions with breaking API changes or deprecations. Proactive compatibility testing prevents unexpected build/test failures for users.

Scope

Check compatibility for all major dependencies:

  • cmocka
  • glib / gio
  • libstrophe
  • ncurses
  • libcurl
  • libnotify
  • GTK
  • libsignal-protocol-c
  • libgpgme
  • libotr
  • sqlite

Distributions to Test

Distribution Branch
Debian stable, testing
Ubuntu LTS, current
Arch Linux current

Tasks

  • Review deprecation warnings in build logs
  • Test on Debian testing with latest packages
  • Update compatibility headers/wrappers as needed
  • Document minimum supported versions

Labels

compatibility, testing, dependencies
