Yes, I noticed that sumalibs was accepted; I will happily take over the maintenance effort for those three packages! > I think an open todo > item would be to remove the sumalibs code copy from sumaclust and > build both, sumaclust and sumatry, against the same lib. > > Let me know what you think. I remember you evoked it a few days ago, and I have thought about it since then. I am now looking at the changes you did today on sumalibs and sumatra. My question is: as I understand /4.13 Embedded code copies/ in the Debian policy, sumatra and sumaclust should use the libs in sumalibs to build, but the code of those libs that is duplicated inside sumaclust should remain there (and not be used), right? Furthermore, currently sumalibs provides a static library built by upstream's Makefiles, should we try to move to a shared library or should we instead not differ from upstream on that? > Kind regards > > Andreas. > Best regards, Pierre
