Hi,

You realized that these files aren't symlinks but libraries? So really 
don't think this would be correct. One example:

So I guess you should create the library and symlink the so file?
(I mean, a library and a library-dev with the so symlinked)

dynamic shared libraries without soname are so painful
(unless they are kept private, and I don't remember the package right now)
I know what you mean: that will make it impossible to install different 
versions of libpanda3d. But I have no clue at all what should be symlinked.



I still don't understand, even after looking at the package
sed 's/@DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH@/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH)/g' 
debian/libpanda3d$(P3DVER).links.in > 
debian/panda3d$(P3DVER).links



why a libpanda3d*.links.in becomes a panda3d*.links?
Oops, that was an mistake while renaming panda3d1.9.0 to libpanda3d1.9.0 as 
requested.
at the end the result is somewhat correct, but I presume there 
are some packaging issues,
e.g. the libpanda3d1.9.0 package contains .so files, but they 
are just links.

I will rebuild and check that.

cheers,

G.

Hi,

again sorry for the delay.


- please switch the rules file to debhelper calls :)


What exactly?


-"install -m 644 debian/shlibs debian/panda3d1.9.0/DEBIAN/shlibs"


Fixed.

all the DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH (I guess, didn't try) might be fixed by patching the 
makepanda/makepanda.py file (probably around line 1596) and maybe somewhere else


I would like to avoid that, mainly because the work would be obsolete soon, 
as upstream wants to switch to CMake in the (more or less) near future.



- please limit to 80 chars the contrl file (I mean the line length)


Done.


- section games maybe?


Sure.


- panda3d should depend on the library with a "(= ${binary:Version})"
- rename panda3d1.9.0 to libpanda3d1.9.0?


Did that, too.


panda3d1.9.0.install:
built/lib/lib*.so usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/panda3d/
this should be in the -dev package


You realized that these files aren't symlinks but libraries? So really 
don't think this would be correct. One example:


-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   772576 Aug 10 11:01 libpandagl.so

Hi everyone,

sorry for the delay, I'm quite busy on real-life work.

I've uploaded a new version, I've decided to switch to shlibs instead of a 
symbols file as I think it's unrealistic to maintain 32k lines of symbols 
for several architectures and the documentation states, that the shlibs 
system could be more suitable for C++ libraries. Btw, I've been accepted to 
pkg-games and will set up a repository for the packaging in the coming 
days.

Hi everyone,

I think everything is now ready for further work on the package. Thank you 
very much for your help!

Sven Bartscher, do you still have interest to co-maintain?

My packaging for Panda3D is currently under review, but I don't expect much 
problems. We can also get some help from upstream, I am in touch with the 
main developer for quite a while now.

Hi,

I did care about 1, 3, 4 and 6.

2) Tried to set myself as owner, but I'm unsure if that was correct - I 
guess not. bugs.debian.org is a bit tricky imho.


5) I did apply for membership something like a week ago, but nothing 
hapenned yet. But I really think working together with the pkg-games team 
would be beneficial.
