Nice. When NEW processing (hopefully) succeeds, I will look further at making use of the restructed packages for eye. > > swi-prolog-core provides virtual package > > swi-prolog-abi-$(swi-prolog:ABI), the value of $(swi-prolog:ABI) is > > based on the output of swipl --abi_version and massaged as follows: > > > > $(shell LD_LIBRARY_PATH=debian/swi-prolog-core/usr/lib > > debian/swi-prolog-core/usr/bin/swipl --abi-version | sed 's/swipl-abi//' | > > tr -d '-') > > I suggest 's/.*-abi-//' as the first part is basically flexible and may > vary with the name of SWI-Prolog.

Virtual package names are permitted to contain dashes (single ones in the middle), and because not all ABI parts are fixed-length stripping dashes introduces a slight risk of different ABI combinations clashing. In other words, if you do want to have Debian packaging present only one ABI (not some or all of the 4 exposed individually), then I agree with Jan that this is both simpler and safer: $(shell LD_LIBRARY_PATH=debian/swi-prolog-core/usr/lib debian/swi-prolog-core/usr/bin/swipl --abi-version | sed 's/.*-abi-//') If perhaps your reason for fusing ABIs is that you are not a fan of perl, then I would be happy to help write the perl code for a dh_* tool which handles all 4 ABIs. > So, > > other packages may depend on swi-prolog-abi-267792e14f8de23899e in case > > they need this particular version of ABI. > > > > Jonas, I did some tweaks to dependencies, so this part should be > > cleaner now. > > > > Also, I looked into the eye package.
