This way, dpkg-shlibdeps will use the DEBIAN/libcurl1.shlibs for the package you are building, and you don't need debian/shlibs.local at all for this. Some versions of dpkg-shlibdeps (including the most recent) can use a '-l <libdirectory>' option to specify additional shared library directories. You may want to Build-Depends: on a specific version of dpkg-dev if you use this. HTH, Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
