Now after trying much more, I still cannot figure out what is the proper way to fix those packages. Am I supposed to create this file automatically for the library by using something like "dpkg-shlibdeps debian/tmp/usr/lib/libots.so.1" or just editing "debian/shlibs" and then "install -m 644 debian/shlibs debian/tmp/DEBIAN/shlibs" in "binary-arch:" section of "debian/rules"? Yes, I did "ln -s libots.so usr/lib/libots.so.1" for the package since "debian/shlibs" file seems to require some version number in the middle. Tried editing it to "libots ots" and "libots 1 ots". Is some kind of dependency information required as well? Uh, I am really getting myself confused with the Debian packages here. -- "pienena / Paavo "Rainbow Rat" Hartikainen minusta / E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] tulee / URL: http://www.sci.fi/~pahartik/ rotta" / EFnet: pahartik at #Atari and #LionKing
