Hi all, [I'm sending this message here as it seems that debian-x wasn't the most appropriate place]
xfree86-driver-synaptics is an xserver-xfree86 driver that supports
special features of synaptics touchpad devices (a pointing device).
I know I'm a bit late in packaging that module but I've been able to
make it work (again) on my hardware only a few weeks ago.
Now comes the problem: linda complains about
E: xfree86-driver-synaptics; Binary /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/synaptics_drv.o is
not stripped.
The binary shown is not stripped, and is included in a standard
package, while Policy shows that it should be stripped
actually stripping (`install -s` or `dh_strip`) removes also the
XF86ModuleData synapticsModuleData = {&VersionRec, &SetupProc, NULL };
symbol, needed for the driver to load correctly in XFree.
It also complains (a warning now) about
W: xfree86-driver-synaptics; Shared binary object
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/input/synaptics_drv.o has no dependancy information.
The binary object listed above is a shared object, but does not report
that it depends on any other shared libraries.
Package: xfree86-driver-synaptics
Version: 0.12.3-1
[...]
Depends: xserver-common (>= 4.2.1)
Suggests: xfree86-driver-synaptics-utils (>= 0.12.3)
So I suppose I'm doing something wrong here...
Any suggestion?
