Hi Jeff and other GMime folks-- in 3.2.0, i noticed that g_mime_stream_null_count_newlines has gone away, and g_mime_stream_null_set_count_newlines is in its place. Using https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=g_mime_stream_null_count_newlines i don't see anything using the older function, and i think the .h file has *never* defined the old symbol, so i think we're likely to be safe in dropping the old function. It's technically *not* breaking the API (because it's not in the .h), but it *is* a break in the ABI, since the symbol itself has disappeared from the .so. Alternately, if we decide we care about this symbol insp the ABI for some reason, we could add an aliased symbol in the shared object (though i really don't think we need to add it to the .h). I'm likely to upload 3.2.0 to debian without the older symbol, but would be happy to upload a new version with that symbol added back in if it's important to you. let me know what you think! --dkg
