You're using testing with libtool 2.x, see the other libtool bugs about what to do in the meanwhile (extract the old lib from the old package and put it on your system for now).

OK, thanks for the tip. Aren't there usually two packages when something like this happens, one for testing and one for extra?

yes if the maintainer has the time to do it.
