--- Begin Message ---Package: gnumeric Version: 1.12.6-2 The Gnumeric package in Debian lacks the development files needed for out-of-tree plugin development. Specifically, the following include and pkg-config files are needed if you want to compile a Gnumeric plugin which is not included in the Gnumeric source itself: /usr/include/libspreadsheet-*/spreadsheet /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libspreadsheet-*.pc Apparently these files have been excluded from the Debian packages since the libspreadsheet API was not considered stable enough. But this isn't true anymore; the plugin API has remained virtually unchanged for years and in fact has survived the recent major shift to GTK3 in the 1.12 stable series. It is thus in practice more stable than most supposedly stable APIs will ever be. These files are *mandatory* for Gnumeric plugin development. Excluding them from Debian is a major impediment for 3rd party plugin developers, especially if they want to package their plugins for Debian and derivatives. I'd suggest providing the development files in a separate gnumeric-dev package. This is easy to achieve. The following debian/gnumeric-dev.install file needs to be added: /usr/include/libspreadsheet-*/spreadsheet /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libspreadsheet-*.pc In addition, the gnumeric-dev package needs to be added to the control file. Something like the following will do: Package: gnumeric-dev Architecture: any Depends: gnumeric (= ${binary:Version}), ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, libgoffice-0.10-dev Replaces: gnumeric (<= 1.2.6-1) Description: spreadsheet application for GNOME - development files Gnumeric is a spreadsheet application that interoperates well with other spreadsheets. It comes with plugins that enable it to deal with commonly used spreadsheet file formats. . This package contains the headers and libraries needed for developing gnumeric plugins. -- Dr. Albert Gr"af Dept. of Music-Informatics, University of Mainz, Germany Email: [email protected] WWW: https://plus.google.com/111193356966611167754
