Oh I did not know about that. I could use the git tag instead, but after
yours and zimoun's messages I've noticed that:

- I had only check dependencies using libgit2 without any @version numbers
and so I thought that there were fewer dependencies than there are in fact;

- no other package seems to be depending on libgit2-1.1, so it should be
remove instead of updated, as zimoun suggested;

- this patch should probably be on core-updates, not on master.

So I'm inclined to agree with zimoun and just remove libgit2-1.1, what do
you think? I'll work on another version of this patch and get back to
you.

I did not know about this QA service, thanks for pointing that out. I
couldn't figure out the other warnings as well, but I only had a quick
look at them.

I did not rebuild all dependent packages yet, I've rebuild only my local
dependencies on two machines (i686 and x86_64).

Yesterday, however, I've bumped on a build error on libjami that could
be related to this patch, even though it does not seem to be so at a
first glance. The build error occurs at check phase with the following
error:

Thanks for helping me out!
