Sorry for the n00b question :( An empty file isn't a copyright file ;) Hava a look at the Policy Manual as proposed. > W: python-ldtp: package-relation-with-self depends: python-ldtp (= 0.1.8-1) > N: > N: The package declares a relationship with itself.

Maybe this solves your problem. "8.2 Run-time support programs If your package has some run-time support programs which use the shared library you must not put them in the shared library package. If you do that then you won't be able to install several versions of the shared library without getting filename clashes. Instead, either create another package for the runtime binaries (this package might typically be named libraryname-runtime; note the absence of the soversion in the package name), or if the development package is small, include them in there." > Thanks in advance Bye Armin [1] http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/1999/02/msg00174.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
