[Fink-devel] .info file creation for g-wrap 1.9.6

2006-06-03 Thread David Reiser
eems hard to do anyway, since there is no compatibility version information associated with otools -L on a .so. I'm working in the 10.4 tree, and don't know much about the relationships between the trees from a packaging standpoint. Should I go ahead and submit my .info file for the 10.

Another useful fact, not mentioned on that page: these days, libtool and its autoconf friends can automatically name bundles as .so files if they are set up properly. Perhaps Peter O'Gorman can give some advice on this. -- Dave On May 31, 2006, at 3:05 PM, David Reiser
