Hello everyone, I was wondering if someone had hints on how to package a library. The things I want to package are often distributed with at least an executable which uses them.
The packages I am working and contain libraries on are: scenic, spinframework. I am also interested in packaging lyd. For now, I used CDBS, but I would like to give a try to dh 7, to compare. :) Whatever works first... Any examples of packages I should check out? I looked at liblo, which is a library I know and use. It's pretty straightforward. I found some info about the soversion (liblyd0, for example) in the Debian policy manual. http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-sharedlibs.html#s-shlibs There is no debian/shlibs file in the Git repo for the packaging of liblo. I guess it's generated by the debian/rules file? It seems like the versioning of the shlibs rely on the LO_SO_VERSION=7:0:0 in configure.ac. Some project may not provide this upstream. I'll keep digging into this.
