I did rename them to *d5-dbg (libpocoxmld5-dbg) as I proposed earlier, but run
into another "violation of the law" - X vs. X-dbg ;-)
W: libpocoxmld5-dbg: dbg-package-missing-depends libpocoxmld5
N:
N: This package has a name of the form of "X-dbg", indicating it contains
N: detached debugging symbols for the package X. If so, it should depend
N: on the corresponding package, generally with (= ${binary:Version})
N: since the debugging symbols are only useful with the binaries created
N: by the same build.
So I believe that the version 1.3.2+dfsg1-1 you have uploaded to mentors on
07-Jun-2008 22:00 (ah I hate dealing with rewritten changelog history;-) is
basically ok, except that lintian override files should be installed for all
these -dbg packages in /usr/share/lintian/overrides/$pkg-dbg, for instance:
libpocoxmld5-dbg: package-name-doesnt-match-sonames libPocoXMLd5
Rf. file:///usr/share/doc/lintian/lintian.html/ch2.html#s2.4
Another way to solve the soname_d vs. pkgname_without-d-dbg issue is to play
with symlinks, i.e. libPocoXML.so.5->libPocoXMLd.so.5 (or other way around),
but that still does not look clean enough to me, and we can add it anyway
further if needed.
I still get these changelog-not-compressed-with-max-compression changelog.gz
warnings for -dbg packages, but that doesn't warrant a override.
