Hi, I maintain a package which is called CEGUI. In current SID version (0.6.2), when you compile it, the next files under usr/lib are created:
libCEGUIBase.la libCEGUIBase.so libCEGUIBase.so.1 libCEGUIBase.so.1.2.0 libCEGUIDevILImageCodec.la libCEGUIDevILImageCodec.so libCEGUIDevILImageCodec.so.0 libCEGUIDevILImageCodec.so.0.0.0 libCEGUIdirectfbRenderer.la libCEGUIdirectfbRenderer.so libCEGUIdirectfbRenderer.so.0 libCEGUIdirectfbRenderer.so.0.0.0 libCEGUIExpatParser.la libCEGUIExpatParser.so libCEGUIExpatParser.so.0 libCEGUIExpatParser.so.0.0.0 libCEGUIFalagardWRBase.la libCEGUIFalagardWRBase.so libCEGUIFalagardWRBase.so.1 libCEGUIFalagardWRBase.so.1.2.0 libCEGUILibxmlParser.la libCEGUILibxmlParser.so libCEGUILibxmlParser.so.0 libCEGUILibxmlParser.so.0.0.0 libCEGUILuaScriptModule.la libCEGUILuaScriptModule.so libCEGUILuaScriptModule.so.1 libCEGUILuaScriptModule.so.1.2.0 libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer.la libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer.so libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer.so.0 libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer.so.0.1.0 libCEGUISampleHelper.la libCEGUISampleHelper.so libCEGUISampleHelper.so.1 libCEGUISampleHelper.so.1.2.0 libCEGUITGAImageCodec.la libCEGUITGAImageCodec.so libCEGUITGAImageCodec.so.0 libCEGUITGAImageCodec.so.0.0.0 libCEGUITinyXMLParser.la libCEGUITinyXMLParser.so libCEGUITinyXMLParser.so.0 libCEGUITinyXMLParser.so.0.0.0 libCEGUItoluapp.la libCEGUItoluapp.so libCEGUItoluapp.so.1 libCEGUItoluapp.so.1.2.0 libCEGUIXercesParser.la libCEGUIXercesParser.so libCEGUIXercesParser.so.0 libCEGUIXercesParser.so.0.0.0 pkgconfig In most recent upstream version, when you compile it you will get this instead: libCEGUIBase-0.7.0.so libCEGUIBase.la libCEGUIBase.so libCEGUIDevILImageCodec-0.7.0.so libCEGUIDevILImageCodec.la libCEGUIDevILImageCodec.so libCEGUIExpatParser-0.7.0.so libCEGUIExpatParser.la libCEGUIExpatParser.so libCEGUIFalagardWRBase-0.7.0.so libCEGUIFalagardWRBase.la libCEGUIFalagardWRBase.so libCEGUILibxmlParser-0.7.0.so libCEGUILibxmlParser.la libCEGUILibxmlParser.so libCEGUILuaScriptModule-0.7.0.so libCEGUILuaScriptModule.la libCEGUILuaScriptModule.so libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer-0.7.0.so libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer.la libCEGUIOpenGLRenderer.so libCEGUISampleHelper-0.7.0.so libCEGUISampleHelper.la libCEGUISampleHelper.so libCEGUITGAImageCodec-0.7.0.so libCEGUITGAImageCodec.la libCEGUITGAImageCodec.so libCEGUITinyXMLParser-0.7.0.so libCEGUITinyXMLParser.la libCEGUITinyXMLParser.so libCEGUItoluapp-0.7.0.so libCEGUItoluapp.la libCEGUItoluapp.so libCEGUIXercesParser-0.7.0.so libCEGUIXercesParser.la libCEGUIXercesParser.so pkgconfig As can be seen above, there is no usr/lib/libCEGUI*.so.* files.I have looked into the configure file and there is this option: --enable-shared[=PKGS] build shared libraries [default=yes] So I cannot understand, Why this kind of stuff happen if the shared libraries are supposed to be created by default? Maybe this kind of question in silly, but what I would like to know is why it happens. I will appreciate your comments. Regards, -- Muammar El Khatib. Linux user: 403107.
