OK, that seems simple enough. :-) > > I'd like to maintain Debian packages for a library I maintain (details are > > in the thread "Packaging xmlrpc-c"). > > > I'm having a look at them right now I've fixed several problems in my local copy: 1) No more links to unimplemented(7). I've written a whole bunch of new man pages, which will be going into the upstream release, too. 2) Better dependencies for xmlrpc-c-dev. query-meerkat and meerkat-app-list are still broken, but I've traced the bug to w3c-libwww. Something in the PHP server's output confuses w3c-libwww and causes it to chop off the trailing bytes of the message. Also, I'm still not sure how to handle C++ *.a or *.so files gracefully. It seems that Debian supports several different versions of the C++ runtime, and I need to build matching C++ *.a and *.so files for installation with the dev package. Is there a policy document on C++ dev libraries? Thank you for your help! Cheers, Eric
