Adapting FancyLibs from Debian 11 Bullseye to 12 Bookworm, later eventually MinGW-9 to MinGW-10
- Christoph Lechleitner

Introduction
About every 2 years Debian introduces a new release.
At the time I'm writing this Debian Bookworm has had it's hard freeze, and due to the switch of OpenSSL 3 we started early this time.
The following notes shall provide the order in which FancyLibs shall be adapted and released for a new Debian release and are based on Adapting FancyLibs & MinGW-Pkg from Debian 9 Stretch to 10 Buster, Mingw-7 to Mingw-8 and Adapting FancyLibs & MinGW-Pkg from Debian 10 Buster to 11 Bullseye, MinGW-8 to MinGW-9
Adapting FancyLibs to new Debian Release
The steps per sub project are the same as described for "HelloWorld projects* in Adapting PBA to new Debian Release, with -o unix (before MinGW adaption) or -o "arch|unix|9" after MinGW adaption.
FancyLibs subproject rebuild order phase 1
We have dropped armhf support.
FancyLibs as well as most to all C++ libraries are developed as PBA-Category and Generation fancylibs-3.8, so existing setups can be maintained with fancylibs 3.7 from PBA-C. and G. fancylibs-3.
Furthermore, new builds for Debian 10 stretch and 11 buster as well as MinGW-8 are beeing dropped.
