I'll say at the outset that this was my fault: when I evaluated these packages on the tracker I glossed over the presence of headers plus public dylibs in qwt and qwtplot3d which aren't placed in -shlibs splitoffs. The validator didn't see the problem either, because the libs and headers from these packages are located in a subdirectory. These should be refactored to include -shlibs splitoffs and a Shlibs: field.
Currently, the only package that would be affected by changing qwtplot3d are labplot (and its -shlibs). qwt doesn't have any packages currently in the distro that depend on it. I've made up modfied .info files for qwt, qwtplot3d, and labplot. They're accessible under experimental/alexkhansen/3rdparty in the Fink CVS tree and http://fink.cvs.sourceforge.net/fink/experimental/alexkhansen/3rdparty/ via the web. The changes were minimal--I just formed the -shlibs splitoffs for qwt and qwtplot3d, made sure that the base packages depend on their -shlibs, and modified labplot and labplot-shlibs to Depend on qwtplot3d-shlibs and to BuildDepend on qwtplot3d. Any feedback will be appreciated. And sorry again for the noncompliance. -- Alexander K.
