Good catch, I have fixed this in git, so it will be in next upload. > It also has an unconventional name, though I'm surprised to see that > Policy and DevRef delegate the deprecation of this sort of name to > http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html#naminglibpkg The knot-libs contains private libraries with no stable API/ABI yet and it's not to be used outside Knot DNS (yet). However the code is shared between knot, knot-dnsutils and knot-host, hence the de-duplication. This will get fixed when we stabilize the API (and ABI) in the future. > The descriptions (short and long) need some work too, but for now I'm > just giving a patch for the bug in the Subject line. Don't bother now, but I would be glad to have a review once we switch to stable API/ABI and split the packages to lib<SONAME><SOVERSION> naming.
