Problems with Symbols, High Severity (1)

	Change	Effect
1	Parameters list has been changed.	The name of the appropriate symbol for this function on binary level has been changed from _ZN17pkgCacheGenerator10NewDependsERN8pkgCache11PkgIteratorERNS0_11VerIteratorERKSsRKjS8_Pj to _ZN17pkgCacheGenerator10NewDependsERN8pkgCache11PkgIteratorERNS0_11VerIteratorERKSsRKjS8_RPj. This may cause "undefined reference" linker error in old client applications.

Problems with Symbols, Low Severity (2)

	Change	Effect
1	2nd parameter Purge has been renamed to MarkPurge.	Renaming of a parameter may indicate a change in its semantic meaning.
