Well I thought about it, but this doesn't solve every my doubt.
How could I name this package? Are there any policies about it?
What if next version occures? How to solve it?
Upstream maintainer answered me, and he told, that his packages (netwox
and netwag) are the only publicly available one.
So this would be some kind of solution, to provide every time those
three packages depending on library.
But how should I name it, and how should I solve new upstream releases?
Please give me some hints... I'm not experienced with that situations.
In fact, I'm not Debian developer yet (last stage), but I'd really like
to see this package in Debian.
Thanks for every answer/suggestion.
regards
