Hi, first thing I can recommend: Don't use cdbs for that. That just doesn't work for building proper library packages. You also want to read http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html and http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-libraries
After reading the second link you should realize that you need to build the static library with other options than the normal .so (hint: -fPIC, also check for -D_REENTRANT) >> * Linda says: >> >> $ linda ustr_1.0.1-1_i386.changes >> W: libustr-1.0-1; The library libustr is not in a shlibs file. >> W: libustr-debug-1.0-1; The library libustr-debug is not in a shlibs file. >> E: libustr-debug-1.0-1; Binary /usr/lib/libustr-debug-1.0.so.1.0.1 >> contains unneeded section comment. >> E: libustr-debug-1.0-1; Binary /usr/lib/libustr-debug-1.0.so.1.0.1 is >> not stripped. > > I doubt about worthiness to have `-debug' packages now. Should I exclude > libustr-debug-1.0-1 and libustr-debug-dev? If someone needs to debug > ustr, he can build a debug library himself and so have the sources... Chances are good that a -dbg package would make more sense then this debug library weirdness.
