Package: quagga Version: 0.99.22-1 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 8.4
As far as I understand packaging policy, header files and static libraries must go in a -dev package, and not be included in the main package. After all most people running a program are not going to be compiling add ons for it. Certainly the static library really doesn't make sense to include. It seems to me, quagga really should have a quagga package for the daemons, a libquagga for the shared libraries, and a libquagga-dev for the headers and static libraries. -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 powerpc Kernel: Linux 3.8-trunk-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_CA.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_CA.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages quagga depends on: ii adduser 3.113+nmu3 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.49 ii iproute 20120521-3+b4 ii libc6 2.16-0experimental1 ii libcap2 1:2.22-1.2 ii libpam0g 1.1.3-9 ii libreadline6 6.2+dfsg-0.1 ii libtinfo5 5.9-10 ii logrotate 3.8.3-3 quagga recommends no packages.
