dear all, i ran across this when trying to install netpbm

fink install netpbm
The following package will be installed or updated:
 netpbm
The following 3 additional packages will be installed:
 netpbm-bin netpbm-shlibs netpbm10-shlibs
Do you want to continue? [Y/n]

out of the info files

/sw/fink/10.3/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/netpbm.info
SplitOff2: <<
  Package: %N-bin
  Depends: %N-shlibs (= %v-%r), libpng3-shlibs
  Replaces: %N (<= 9.25-1)
  Files: bin share/man/man1 share/man/man3
  DocFiles: COPYRIGHT.PATENT HISTORY Netpbm.programming README
<<

/sw/fink/10.3/unstable/main/finkinfo/graphics/netpbm10.info
SplitOff2: <<
  Package: netpbm-bin
  Depends: netpbm10-shlibs (= %v-%r), libpng3-shlibs
  Files: bin share/man/man1 share/man/man3
  DocFiles: README doc/*
<<

so the package netpbm-bin is provided by both, netpbm and netpbm10. no problem so far as netpbm-bin is build depends only but it seems odd to me that building a package requires the shlibs of a different version of the same package. after the build netpbm-bin and netpbm10-shlibs can be removed, of course. but is this the desired way?

thanks

mathias meyer
