Hi Matthew,
thank you for your ideas but I still see a problem.

API version changes when upstream change the > API and is encoded in the package name. How do I find out if the API has changed in a new upstream version? You suggest some different ways to place a unversioned symlink in some kind of *-dev package. How do you want to make sure that the same API version is used during compile time and run time? ELF binaries solve that problem with their static and dynamic linkers - but Java? Do we need to always install the *-dev package even during run time? > Combined -dev/-doc packages I like that most but do not understand how does it work. Does it mean that we need to alwayl install the *-doc package to fulfill the runtime dependency? Cheers, Torsten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
