It is a good idea to separate the debian subdirectory from the upstream sources, but you don't have to put the debian subdirectory in monotone; it's your decision. > Cheers, > > [1] https://gna.org/projects/gnatgpr > [2] https://gna.org/projects/adadesigner For now I'll comment only on gnatgpr, since adadesigner depends on it. The most recent revision in your Subversion repository (r83) is 7 months old but here are my comments anyway; some of them might no longer be relevant. - do not include a copy of the GNAT sources in your repository; this is a recipe for endless trouble copying & merging from upstream sources. Instead, use libgnatvsn and libgnatprj. - do not include a copy of the AdaControl sources (options_analyzer) in your repository. Instead, modify the packaging of adacontrol in Debian to produce a pair of "liboptions_analyzer" packages (-dev and runtime), so you can build-depend on them. - in your debian/control, rename libgnatgpr0-bin to just gnatgpr. - in your debian/control, rename the libgnatgpr0 *source* package to just gnatgpr (the *binary* runtime library package should remain libgnatgpr0). - in debian/rules, you extract the VERSION and REVISION from the latest changelog entry (good) but then you hardcode the package names to libgnatgpr0 and libgnatgpr0-dev (bad). Also you seem to assume that soversion is always equal to aliversion; this is not generally true but you may decide to make them equal, in which case you should say so explicitly in a comment. - in gnatgpr_lib.gpr, you set the Library_Version to "libgnatgpr.so.0.34"; this is the soname of the library and it *must* match the binary package name, so your binary package name should be libgnatgpr0.34, not libgnatgpr0. You may want to do it the other way around: change the soname to just libgnatgpr.so.0 and keep the binary package name unchanged. - also in gnatgpr_lib.gpr, you use the Library_Interface attribute which makes the library "stand-alone" and "automatically initialized". I'd likt to know how that affects other Ada programs that link against both libgnatgpr and another, non-automatically initialized, library.
