Uh, you guys are losing me really quickly.
XFree86 3.3.6 and earlier called dpkg-shlibdeps "by hand".
I'm using debhelper for XFree86 4.0.1. Despite the big major version
number change, only two shared libraries in X have incremented their
version number in the meantime.
XFree86 3.3.6 XFree86 4.0.1
libXext.so.6.3 libXext.so.6.4
libXaw.so.6.1 libXaw.so.6.1
libXaw.so.7.0
(Yes, 4.0.1 ships two versions of libXaw. See
<http://www.debian.org/~branden/MANIFEST>.)
If you guys could tell me what I need to do to manage this transition, I'd
appreciate it.
