*** Please type your report below this line *** The following command highlights... garson:~# apt-cache show libferite0 Package: libferite0 Priority: optional Section: libs Installed-Size: 92 Maintainer: Eric Dorland <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: i386 Source: ferite Version: 1.0.0.1+rc2-1 Suggests: libferite-dev (= 1.0.0.1+rc2-1) Filename: pool/main/f/ferite/libferite0_1.0.0.1+rc2-1_i386.deb Size: 50844 MD5sum: 9199d5e1c6f803819fae83b285e0d3bf Description: Ferite language library Ferite is a language that incorporates the design philosophies of other languages, but without many of their drawbacks. It has strong similiarities to perl, python, C, Java and pascal, while being both lightweight, modular, and embeddable. . This package contains the library and modules for ferite. So yeah, a libsomething should have the actual libraries, but this one doesn't: garson:~# dpkg --contents /var/cache/apt/archives/libferite0_1.0.0.1+rc2-1_i386.deb drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2004-12-05
