Severity: wishlist
>From my GNU R package, a small self-contained math library is
extracted. Lintian complains:
W: r-mathlib: non-dev-pkg-with-shlib-symlink usr/lib/libRmath.so.1.0.0
usr/lib/libRmath.so
N:
N: Though this package is not a `-dev' package, it installs a symbolic
N: link referencing the corresponding shared library, where the link name
N: does not include the version number of the shared library.
N:
N: If there is also a `-dev' package for this shared library, this is
N: most likely a bug. If this is a small package which includes the
N: runtime and the development libraries, this is not a bug. In the
N: latter case, please contact [EMAIL PROTECTED] about this so
N: that this exception would be recognized in future versions of Lintian.
N:
I don't think it should. I have another batch of things in *.lintian files
some of which are idiosyncratic to R and the way it is structured upstream
(i.e. everything lives in $R_HOME == /usr/lib/R on Debian):

I'd be happy to see you include any one of these in lintian's repertoire too
and I'd be glad to discuss individual ones.
Thanks for keeping lintian alive and extending it. I've used it since day
one, and it has helped me a lot in packaging.

As discussed in the bug report, this issues should be solved by use
of overrides (as done already) or other packaging. We don't think
this should be solved within lintian.
