Been reading through the bug log since my last message. Here's some input I have.
About putting libvdpau into ia32-libs or some similar package. This could be done if you coordinate with the proper team (Debian ia32-libs Team <pkg-ia32- libs-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org>). I imagine you just file a wishlist bug against ia32-libs. About whether the package should be arch any or arch all, libvdpau is architecture *dependent*, so it should be arch *any*. Also, yes there was a mistake with forgetting to have the dev package depend on the library. This is the proper way to fix that issue: http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg- multimedia/libvdpau.git;a=commitdiff;h=ee852017eed079f469de0f6112a83a4bfd5a8376 About the new file layout: > Copying the details I posted to bug 547248 here too: > > Yet-to-be-released NVIDIA drivers will install: > > /usr/lib/libvdpau.so -> libvdpau.so.1 > /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1 -> libvdpau.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/libvdpau_nvidia.so -> vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/libvdpau_trace.so -> vdpau/libvdpau_trace.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.1 -> libvdpau_nvidia.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_nvidia.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_trace.so.1 -> libvdpau_trace.so.190.NN > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_trace.so.190.NN > > git HEAD libvdpau will install: > > /usr/lib/libvdpau.la > /usr/lib/libvdpau.so -> libvdpau.so.1.0.0 > /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1 -> libvdpau.so.1.0.0 > /usr/lib/libvdpau.so.1.0.0 > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_trace.la > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_trace.so -> libvdpau_trace.so.1.0.0 > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_trace.so.1 -> libvdpau_trace.so.1.0.0 > /usr/lib/vdpau/libvdpau_trace.so.1.0.0 Yes, this is acceptable. Just so you know, the libtool libraries (.la files) are never placed in Debian packages, but there's no need to change any of the upstream code for that. -- Regards, Andres -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
