Yes.

This is a standard problem with C++ libraries. You have to use architecture-specific symbols for a lot of C++ libraries. There are new facilities in dpkg to try to help making writing those symbol files easier, but I'm still not getting a warm and fuzzy mature feeling about use of symbols with C++ at this point. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
