Hi, I'm packing a library (not yet an ITP, just learning) and I'm having some doubts about it.
Upstream uses autotools, but not in a very correct way, I guess. The library is 3.5.6 version, but the configure + make creates libXXX.so.0.0.0. I have looked on the configure.ac, Makefile.am, etc, and I have not seen any place to pass a parameter to libtoolize. So, how can I "correct" this bug in upstream? Also, my second question is about to create a dbg package. Upstream has some --enable-debug that is a -DDEBUG. Looking on the source I have seen some std outs with this define. Looking others packages, I have understood that you create the package normally, and you add dh_strip --dbg-package= line to put the striped symbols in that package. This is correct? is it worsewhile to generate that package? And my last question is examples. Upstream has a directory with some examples, but they are not installed (noinst_PROGRAMS), so, should I to patch sources to install them? Or simply, do I copy the files? Thanks in advance, Leo -- -- Linux User 152692 PGP: 0xF944807E Catalonia
