game with small library
Hi! I'm trying to package a game (http://taxipilot.sf.net), that comes with a really small shared library. The only reason this library exists, is that the provided functionality has to run inside the sound-server. Likely, it will never be used by any other package. Now, when I try to package the game as "single binary", everything seems to work fine (i.e. the lib gets installed, too), but lintian complains: W: taxipilot: non-dev-pkg-with-shlib-symlink usr/lib/libEXT_wavpo.so.0.0.0 usr/lib/libEXT_wavpo.so E: taxipilot: no-shlibs-control-file usr/lib/libEXT_wavpo.so.0.0.0 Could anybody point me in the right direction? (Please CC me) Thanks! thomas

adopting a package
Thanks for your hints. But I have still two questions: 1. Where can I find the old-version of the package. (Since I want to adopt an existing package I think I can skip the steps descriped in the sections 3-6 in the "Debian New Maintainers' Guide" and start with section 9.) 2. I can not use the programs dupload or dput for uploading the package. (My my debian-PC has no internet connection.) So I need a guide to: How to upload a package manually.
