As I said, the .o are not a library: they do not provides a library-like ABI/API. Instead they are meant to relink the new gap interpretor with extra functions, like gac does. On Debian, this is mostly deprecated by the use of dlopen inside the standard gap binary. There are people working on providing a proper library, but this is done outside this package. And it will stay this way at least until a proper ABI is defined. Cheers, Bill. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
