[...] ~/f/wherever/you/temporary/placed/libswish-e is not in the search path of the dynamic-linker (see ld.so(8)), /usr/local/lib/ might be specified in /etc/ld.so.conf on your system, once the library is installed to /usr/lib and ldconfig has been run, the new version will probably be used. > dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: could not find any packages for > /usr/local/lib/libswish-e.so.2 (libswish-e.so.2) > > dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: unable to find dependency information for shared > library libswish-e (soname 2, path /usr/local/lib/libswish-e.so.2, > dependency field Depends) [...] You are probably looking for something like dh_shlibdeps -ldebian/libswish-e/usr/lib You haven't read the library packaging guide http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/ have you? cu andreas -- "See, I told you they'd listen to Reason," [SPOILER] Svfurlr fnlf, fuhggvat qbja gur juveyvat tha.
