- Use a define for the so version and fix -devel requiring the old libappstream3
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep 16 07:45:43 UTC 2016 - alarrosa@suse.com
- Update to version 0.10.0
- Disable stemming support until we have libstemmer packaged.
- Generate libappstream4 packages since AppStream changes the ABI in 0.10.0
Notes:
* This release breaks API/ABI in order to support multiple metadata sets describing the same
component (needed for bundling support), moving away from the database as central data store
and general cleanup.
* Porting is relatively straightforward, if you were using AsDatabase, you should switch to AsPool
now (AsDatabase has been a wrapper around AsPool for a while anyway).
* Many methods became private API with this release, file a bug if you miss anything.
* The 'categories.xml' file is gone - please account for that if you were reading it directly,
and consider using AsCategory instead, which offers the same functionality.
