I think it would make sense for Debian to follow what Arch and Fedora
are doing, introduce a libdialog15 package with the shared library and a
libdialog-dev package with the .so symlink but without libdialog.a,
because that requires (if I understood you correctly) configuring and
building dialog twice, greatly complicating packaging.
Santiago, do you think this is a good plan?
Yes. If we can avoid the static library to keep it simple, that would be better.
Simple question: Is that really allowed these days? I wanted to be sure
by reading Policy but did not find any statement saying they are required
or not.
I can work on an updated patch.
That would definitely help.
Thanks a lot!
