Friends - I have a question. First the background. I have a package that I'm currently working on (polyml5), and it builds a shared library. The package is at version 5.1, and the shared library that it builds is libpolyml.1.dylib. This library has the appropriate install-name and compatiblity and current versions 2.0.0. I incorrectly stated earlier that the library was essentially private; this, it turns out, is incorrect. Now, as I read the fink policy with regard to shared libraries, section 3.4 of the packaging manual, I should be creating two packages with names polyml5 and polyml5-shlibs (a split-off). This is fine, but it also seems to suggest that the library should be named libpolyml5.5.x.y.dylib rather than libpolyml.1.x.y.dylib.
Now for the question: what do I do? It seems to me that I need polyml5 and polyml5-shlibs, and polyml5-shlibs should contain libpolyml.1.0.0.dylib. Is that the right thing to do? I admit to being confused about this issue; and it is made worse by the fact that the earlier version (5.0) of this package didn't use versioning at all.
