As DD's, you and I are free to skip ITP bugs but maintainers needing sponsorship should file an ITP. Indeed there's very valuable information layed out in a very friendly way in the ITP, like language, license and homepage of the project being packaged. I can understand why sponsors may want to require them. Actually, I require the same information (and then some more) in the RFS email when sponsoring. I require the ITP for different reasons: An ITP open for at least a week ensures that other DD's and interested parties have a chance to check the proposed package name for conflicts, add a comment about whether there are likely problems just from the type of package (e.g. yet another image gallery website system) or the likely dependencies (php4). This is because an ITP report always gets copied to debian-devel as a special case of bug handling. More eyes means more problems are spotted before the package gets anywhere near any users. An ITP also helps avoid duplicated work - you should always check for an ITP before starting work on any new package. That is why an ITP should have been opened for at least a week before I do the sponsoring. File the ITP when you start working on a package - before you've even run your first build. File an RFS only when you have done everything you can to prepare an acceptable package and have uploaded it to mentors. In the RFS, start with the info from the original ITP and then start adding more information for the sponsor. Those are my recommendations for ITP and RFS. -- Neil Williams = http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/ pgp3zPKa05sBe.pgp Description: PGP signature

I still have to check what can be reasonably done here. But the GUI program which pops up the printing dialog shares two binary libraries with the core driver, so it's clear I can't split this if I have to make these libs private to one package. :-( I personally am not particularly uncomfortable with shipping binary packages that use RPATH to find libraries in a subdirectory of /usr/lib, provided that they have a tight dependency on exactly the version of the library package they need (which for this application you'll probably need anyway). Other people may differ. I agree. So making the libraries private would be a possible way to do it, sidestepping the shlibs problem... Given the annoying dependencies of the GUI client, is there any doable alternative? If there is no hard showstopper, I would still find it more natural to have the libs as a separate package. One could argue that certainly no other free software will link against such undisclosed libraries, but why shouldn't there exist more than one (non-free or contrib) package using them? Do the strict assumptions of the shlibs format really make it impossible to package libraries with unversioned sonames? Hmm, I guess I should mention another problem.

You'll have to maintain tight dependencies between the binary packages and the library package since there aren't versioned SONAMEs to help and you basically can't use the shlibs system the way it's intended given the structure of these packages. But it's not really that different from a binary that allows plugins that are shipped in a separate package; it just has the direction of dependency reversed. I don't know if others would disagree with me. I guess then there would be no need for a -dev package? Hmm. Upstream has included the necessary header files in every pacakage which needs them. Of course the packages would still need to build-depend upon the libraries, to make the linking succeed. No problem. -dev packages are for Debian users to do development against the libraries or for other packages that depend on those libraries to build against them, neither of which seems to be useful outside of this complex of packages itself. dpkg-shlibdeps would still choke upon the unversioned soname, but I could just hard-code the library dependency and be done with it.
