Hi Dan,

I'm working on a new emboss and want to make sure that I do it right  
this time :)  I have three questions.

I couldn't find the email, but IIRC you mentioned using a script in  
your experimental that sorts this out for you. I tried that, but got  
the following output:

k...@exile:~$ fink-dyld-link-test /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libeexpat.1.dylib
Preparing...
g++ -all_load -multiply_defined suppress -bind_at_load /var/folders/0g/ 
0gK39pK6GzigM6sJz3JwV++++TI/-Tmp-/IFC2KeoIjj.c -o /var/folders/0g/

========================================================================
Testing package /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libeexpat.1.dylib...
Package `/sw/lib/emboss/libeexpat.1.dylib' is not installed.
Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.
Could not read file list
========================================================================
Results:
$/sw/lib/EMBOSS/libeexpat.1.dylib = 'Could not read file list';
========================================================================
Summary:
   /sw/lib/EMBOSS/libeexpat.1.dylib  Package not tested

Did I use the correct tool?


Secondly, (and this was already so in the current emboss), the -dev  
splitoffs install the libraries in two locations, so two copies of each:

     lib/libajax*
     lib/EMBOSS/libajax*

Is this correct as well?



Finally, can I do anything about these libtool warnings:

libtool: install: warning: `../nucleus/libnucleus.la' has not been  
installed in `/sw/lib/EMBOSS'


Thanks,

- Koen.
