Hi all. After a couple of talks with Josip Rodin, I came across with one question regarding the Debian Policy for naming library packages:
Suppose I've got a library named foo version 1.32, should the package name be foo1{-dev} or libfoo1{-dev}? The question is should one use _lib_ on the library name? Almost all the new packages are naming the libraries lib<name><soname>{-dev}, but as I read it, there's nothing in the policy (section 4.3) that states this. All it says is that the package should be called <libraryname><soname>{-dev}. Should we consider a change in the policy about making this a policy standart, as everyone is following these rules? -- Pedro Guerreiro (aka digito) ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) -------------------------------------------------------- Diplomacy: the art of letting someone have your own way.
