Hi, I've tried to packetize a library a friend of my has written. He uses a autoconf-script, and 'make install' places the libraries in /usr/local/lib and the headers in /usr/local/include. My debian/rules-file calls ./configure with --prefix=/usr. I've initially created the package using 'dh-make -e simon.martin.gmx.at -f ../libgnotify-0.6.tar.gz' and modified all important files after that (to be honest: all files that seem important to me -- copyright, control, changelog and watch) and removed the others. Then I've called 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot', which also seems to work fine. All files are created properly in debian/tmp/usr/, especially debian/tmp/usr/lib/libgnotifylib.so (symlinked correctly to libgnotifylib.so.0.0.0) and debian/tmp/usr/include/gnotifylib/libgnotify.h.
The only warning I get is the following: ---- /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libgnotifylib.lai /home/simon/libgnotify/libgnotify-0.6/debian/tmp/usr/lib/libgnotifylib. la /usr/bin/install -c .libs/libgnotifylib.a /home/simon/libgnotify/libgnotify-0.6/debian/tmp/usr/lib/libgnotifylib.a ranlib /home/simon/libgnotify/libgnotify-0.6/debian/tmp/usr/lib/libgnotifylib.a chmod 644 /home/simon/libgnotify/libgnotify-0.6/debian/tmp/usr/lib/libgnotifylib.a libtool: install: warning: remember to run `libtool --finish /usr/lib' make[3]: Für das Ziel "install-data-am" ist nichts zu tun. [there's nothing to do for target "install-data-am"] --- Lintian can't find any errors. I'm requested to enter my gpg-passphrase, and the .deb, the .dsc, the .changes and so on are created.
