This update bumps the library soname from libjasper.so.4 to libjasper.so.6. At minimum, it should be accompanied by rebuilds of everything that uses the library:
"As a result, we should avoid major updates of packages within a stable release. Updates should aim to fix bugs, and not introduce features, particularly when those features would materially affect the user or developer experience. ... ABI changes in general are very strongly discouraged, they force larger update sets on users and they make life difficult for third-party packagers."
Is there a substantial justification for this update in a stable release?
