Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.15.4.1
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dpkg-shlibdeps
Hi,
in the process of packaging the Intel pro c/c++ compiler I run into
the problem that their libraries have broken "SONAME libfoo.so". They
do not have any soversion at all. Because of this dpkg-shlibdeps
ignores those libraries completly and one can not create a shlibs
entry for them.
I think it would be better if a soversion of 0 would be assumed in
such cases so that one can still get automatic dependencies for such
libs. The change in dpkg-shlibdeps would be simple:
sub split_soname {
my $soname = shift;
if ($soname =~ /^(.*)\.so\.(.*)$/) {
return wantarray ? ($1, $2) : 1;
} elsif ($soname =~ /^(.*)-(\d.*)\.so$/) {
return wantarray ? ($1, $2) : 1;
+ } elsif ($soname =~ /^(.*)\.so$/) {
+ return wantarray ? ($1, 0) : 1;
} else {
return wantarray ? () : 0;
}
}
If that is acceptable then please do clone the bug to dh_makeshlibs so
it automatically generates dependencies for such libs as well.
MfG
Goswin
