This option wasneeded when package builds a binary that uses libraries built from the same source package. In this case, libraries may not be available outside of package build directory; so ldd called from dpkg-shlibdeps won't find them witout LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Don't yet know how this situation is handled in your patched dpkg-shlibdeps... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
