I'm making a debian package that contains 1 thing: a shared library, it the first thing I'm ever packaging. Now lintian gives an error that there's no shlibs, it also says stuff about it being intential and so. I think I don't need this shlibs, but I want to make sure. There's no binary that depends on the shared library and as far as I understood from the packaging manual that's what this shlibs is for, right?
So my question now is: what should I do? Just ignore the error or make some kind of dummy shlibs? Or mail the lintian maintainer (like the error says)? Or am I wrong and do I need a shlibs after all, if yes: what should it look like?? Ron Rademaker PS. Could you cc to me when replying, I'm not subscribed to this list.
