Don't you mean dh_makeshlibs? I'm already doing this. I changed debian/rules to not run dh_shlibdeps on the -dev package, but it didn't fix it. Also, I made a mistake in my previous report - the pkg-without-shlibs-has-shlibs-control-file error occurs in both the wxgtk2.1 and wxgtk2.1-dev packages. The main packages has a .so file; -dev just has symlinks to them. > thanks for doing this, I have not had the time to take it from Brian. > > p.s. are you also doing wxpython? Yes; I'm doing wxgtk2.1, wxgtk2.1-dev, and python-wxwin. -Ben -- Ben Darnell [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www4.ncsu.edu/~bgdarnel/thoughtstream/
