shlibs.local isn't even normally needed in this case because dpkg-shlibdeps happily searchs for _all_ shlibs files below debian/ before attempting to search for "external" packages. The problem with shlibs.local is that it easily produces packages depending on themself since there is no check against that in the code currently. For other "local" shlibs files dpkg-shlibdeps already detects if they are from the same package as the executable and ignores those dependencies. I somehow doubt that many people know about these differences, though... > In this sence, new information that comes from ldd finding libraries in > LD_LIBRARY_PATH dirs, is useless. Yeah, I'm still searching for a counter example myself.
