The version of debian-policy I have installed (3.6.2.2) has the following footnote on the first paragraph of §8.6.2: [1] If you are using `debhelper', the `dh_shlibdeps' program will do this work for you. It will also correctly handle multi-binary packages. Is that not sufficient? --bod -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
