Package: d-shlibs
Version: 0.40
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hi Junichi,
d-shlibdeps works only with versioned -dev packages that provides a
virtual unversioned package:
libgs8
libgd8-dev (libgs-dev)
An alternative packaging style is to use an unversioned -dev package:
libgd8
libgs-dev
Each of them have different benefits. The first is easier for d-shlibs
to analyse, but the latter has the benefit of allowing versioned
dependency on the -dev package.
See bug#458877 for concrete issue caused by my being a fan of d-shlibs.
Attached patch implements a commandline option to use unversioned -dev.
Ideally both packaging styles should be supported automatically, but
that needs more work (analysing control file earlier, to affect
PKGNAME).
Kind regards,
- Jonas
