[HEADS-UP] jsoncpp update

[Sébastien Willmann]

Hello,

I going to update jsoncpp to the latest github commit in rawhide. This is an ABI
break with no soname change.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1143774

That’s rather risky, any of the users could break without any RPM dependency failure. 
Could you at least file a bug against every package using jsoncpp to let them know that
they should check their uses of jsoncpp, please?

Why is there no soname change?  (ie, there probably should be)

It'd be a dilemma, upstream didn't do that, while downstream can do
that and then the commit will be objected by the others.

See the example of json-c[1].
