It is linked from the existing manual "Debian Developer's Reference (CVS version)" which you are one of the authors :-) If including this document directly into this DDP CVS is desirable, let me know. I have patch almost ready :) FYI: Debian Developer's Reference (CVS) <URL:http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/> or more specifically link exist at the end of: <URL:http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices> 6.2.2 Libraries Libraries are always difficult to package for various reasons. The policy imposes many constraints to ease their maintenance and to make sure upgrades are as simple as possible when a new upstream version comes out. A breakage in a library can result in dozens of dependent packages breaking. * Good practices for library packaging have been grouped in the library * packaging guide.
