Since I received no complaints, I implemented the support of this format. It's available in the bzr repository: bzr get http://bzr.debian.org/bzr/private/hertzog/shlibdeps/ I also implemented other (nice) stuff: - dpkg-shlibdeps now warns about binaries that are linked with libraries when in fact they use none of their symbols - we have different levels of check that can make dpkg-gensymbols fail (with option -c<level>). By default level 1 is activated, it will fail if some symbols disappeared. Level 2 will also fail if new symbols are introduced with prior update of the debian/symbols file. Level 3 and 4 introduce additional checks about new/disappearing libraries in the package.
