We ship (eg, in puredata-dev) a standard-pd-object.mk CDBS class which includes the snippets needed for the shlibdeps and license fiddling, and the makefile class. 2. rules files then become simply: #!/usr/bin/make -f LIBRARY_NAME = pdlib include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/standard-pd-object.mk What do you think?That looks very handy, but I think the given library template is well tuned. For me the problem would be then learning cdbs for special cases. But since there are still at least 30 unpackaged Pd libraries, I think having this as option makes sense. I'd call it something like standard-pd-library.mk
If the word "CDBS" discourages you, then (since the proposal is to ship a template _separately_ from CDBS) you can just ship a snippet unrelated to CDBS.
Heck, you can even ship a snippet which uses short-form dh!My point here is that there is nothing in CDBS to "learn" except for the parts that you include. So if you find the CDBS templates more of a burden than a benefit, then don't use them - write your own from scratch instead: it is simply a make inclusion (at first - over time it may grow ugly, more ugly than CDBS).
