Greetings, I am not a Salome user, but here are some (hopefully not too stupid) remarks about http://ftp-master.debian.org/new/salome_5.1.3-8.html
* Binary packages are under the contrib/ section, AFAICT they can be moved into main * libsalome and libsalome-dev ships a lot of shared libraries, some of which with very generic names libe libHELLO.so or libLauncher.so. This is a potential source of conflict, can all these libraries be moved into a private directory like /usr/lib/salome/ ? * Libraries generated by swig have an underscore prepended, which means that they are not opened by the dynamic loader and should be moved into a private directory. * Ditto for binaries; and there is a concrete conflict, salome ships /usr/bin/display which means that many people will not be able to install this package since imagemagick is very popular. Can binaries be moved into a private directory, like /usr/lib/salome/bin/ ? I guess that runSalome and killSalome have to be put under /usr/bin/, I can't tell for other binaries. * Binary packages seem to contain lots of tests (/usr/bin/*[tT][eE][sS][tT]* or /usr/lib/lib*[tT][eE][sS][tT]*), can they be dropped? * Description of the salome binary package has to be updated, AFAICT there is no binary under /usr/bin/salome/ * salome-common is quite large, are files under /usr/share/salome/resources/med/ really needed? It looks like *.med files are already provided by salome-examples. Denis -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
