I wasn't very clear, Jordi.  I meant to ask is that something like:

  two debs per lib (lib and lib-dev) # over 40 unique libs => 80+ deb packages

And are the bin files their own deb?

Can you point to the Debian document discussing that part?

So how do you handle the user finding brlcad libs?  LD_LIBRARY_PATH is
not good practice as I understand it these days--I thought using
ld.so.conf.d was the thing to do.
