Package: debian-policy
Severity: normal
Hi,
Debian policy 10.2 Libraries says:
| Packages containing shared libraries that may be linked to by other
| packages' binaries, but which for some compelling reason can not be
| installed in /usr/lib directory, may install the shared library files
| in subdirectories of the /usr/lib directory, in which case they should
| arrange to add that directory in /etc/ld.so.conf in the package's
| post-installation script, and remove it in the package's post-removal
| script.
I believe this should be changed to dropping a file into
/etc/ld.so.conf.d instead. Giving a policy for the filename might be a
good idea too so there won't be conflicts. How about
/etc/ld.so.conf/<package>.conf?
