Packaging bundled library

Dear Mentors, I'd like to package a small PHP utility that embeds a library. Should I package the library separately straight away? I know this is the way to go but on the other hand it seems like unnecessary overhead to package a library when it's used by only one other package. What would b

dfsg bit in the package name

Hi Mentors, Is there any preference/reasoning for using any particular symbol that joins "dfsg" bit with the package name? I can see that different packages use a different format, here are some quick stats from packages in unstable (with the counts): 1179 +dfsg 1119 .dfsg 233 ~dfsg

Adding a symlink to a library in postinst

Dear Mentors, The package I'm maintaining (moodle) is handling embedded libraries by not shipping them in a binary package and then replacing them with a symlink. Adding symlink is done in postinst, e.g.: [ ! -h /usr/share/moodle/lib/yui ] && ln -s /usr/share/javascript/yui /usr/share/moodle/lib/y

Hi Mentors, It looks like a common place to put PHP libraries is under /usr/share. However, our wiki page [1] says: /usr/share/ : Architecture-independent (shared) data I think the "data" bit there is misleading, are you OK to remove it? For the PHP packages, it's really a source code that we
