Alternatively, create a symlink into /usr/lib/pkgconfig/ in postinst, if one isn't already present. Indeed, dh_makeshlibs could do this in the same way it adds those 'ldconfig' calls. (Well, I suppose some shlib packages don't run dh_makeshlibs -s, instead using -p on each library package ... but they could if they wanted.) -- Peter Samuelson | org-tld!p12n!peter | http://p12n.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
