Yes, that's the intention. The shorter the code is the less chances for errors occure and you are profiting automagically from new features the less you are doing manually. > > This is definitely a total missunderstanding of the role d-shlibs is > > playing.

You know how to seek in our SVN? Here we are: $ grep -l d-shlibmove trunk/packages/*/trunk/debian/rules trunk/packages/ctapimkt/trunk/debian/rules trunk/packages/libgenome/trunk/debian/rules trunk/packages/libmems/trunk/debian/rules trunk/packages/libquazip/trunk/debian/rules trunk/packages/libtecla/trunk/debian/rules trunk/packages/volpack/trunk/debian/rules I'd recommend to ignore ctapimkt which has some trouble. Libtecla is the package I touched last in this list. IMHO the man pages as well as these examples are sufficient to learn about the options you need. > For the moment, I'll try to improve the building system: > - use the --buildsystem=qmake OK. > - build the debug lib Fine. > - build a multi-arch package (I'm actually reading some docs) Brave.
