It's true that you could change to rrdtool1 now. However, it is easier for
backwards compatibility to not do that. If there are packages which depend
on rrdtool at the moment, then they will continue to function normally
even if you do the split.
(OK, there probably aren't any in the case of rr

Other than my libtool versioning issue

It would be good to do percent expansion for "Suggests"
I have one small correction to make to the example Max gave:
SplitOff: <<
Package: %N-shlibs
Depends: othertest
# Note: files uses the same syntax as DocFiles, only that pathes are
# relativ to %i and not to %p
Files: lib/libfoobar.0.23.dylib, lib/libfoobar.0.dylib
DocFiles: COPYING
I just added code to CVS that enables initial splitoff support. All
brave developers please go ahead and install it and test how it
works. To do so, check out the "fink" CVS module and use the
inject.pl script.
I'd like to get as much feedback in short time as possible, even if
no package doe
