This is a resend of a mail I've sent with a wrong subject yesterday, so it might got sorted in the wrong thread and did not get answers yet:
I'm stuck... As I have written some days before I am trying to package camsource - a camserv like webcam-streaming software. As usual ;) I did not listen to the guidelines regarding single-binary only first packages, so camsource contains some devel-files and libraries (filters/plugins to camsource). First packaging went well and now I want to split them to follow the policy-rules regarding libraries. To do so I'd have to split the package into camsource (main binary), libcamsource0 (shared libraries + links) and libcamsource0-dev (static libraries + includes). Correct? Coming to the problematic part: camserv used to do this just like this, but newer versions (starting at 1:0.5.0-1) contain everything in one package again. This is listed in the Changelog, so it was done on intention: * Flush separate lib and lib-dev packages. So is this a wrong packaged camserv or is there a way around the policy rule from above (which would make packaging a lot easier). Lintian doesn't report it as an error, another point that makes me believe it's possible to include the libraries and header files in the package.
