Description Didier Raboud 2010-04-07 07:03:26 EEST

Hi, 

as it can be seen on [0], libapiextractor0 exports lots of std::* junk symbols,
that should most probably not be part of the public ABI.

Please adopt a patch similar to [1] to at least hide them from the public API.

Best regards, 

OdyX

For information, I managed to filter those "junk" symbols out by using the
following "symbols.filter" file:

{
local:
_ZSt*;
_ZNSt*;
_ZNSs*;
_ZNKSt*;
};
