I'm not sure that should be "fixed" most of those libs are in fact : * plugins or alike and live in /usr/lib/kde3 and not in plain /usr/lib * private shared libs like /usr/lib/libkmailprivate.so But no other applications depends upon them (they make a whole homogenous thing with the apps that is shipped with them) the fact that those libs are not in a -lib package is not a "bug" or something that has to be fixed. If you split KDE pacakges in lib/non-lib packages, the 200 or 300 kde packages will become 5-600 and this would be a real madness. The thing is, every single kde package depends from libqt3-mt, kdelibs or libkonq4 (and a couple of such pure libs packages). And I believe it's also sensible to rename only those, and to forget about the libs in non-pure-libs packages. -- ·O· Pierre Habouzit ··O OOO http://www.madism.org
