I have added the symbols file for the libclutter-1.0-0 package in lp:~afrantzis/ubuntu/maverick/clutter-1.0/add-symbols
The symbols file contains the json_* symbols that clutter exposes when using the internal json-glib library (as is happening in the current package). Upstream has recommended using an external libjson-glib library instead. Both the 1.2.8 package in debian experimental and my own 1.3.x eglx packages use an external json-glib.
Unfortunately, this translates to an ABI break and a decision should be made whether to bump the ABI or just ignore it when we move to newer packages.
