Yes. An internal version numbers policy. You call a function
(via dlsym) asking if the interface you (i.e. parted) is using,
and reiserfs

Hi again,
I forgot to mention: what if a backward-compatible API change is
made to libreiser?
libtool library versioning is designed to deal with all of this...
can we use it somehow?

Yes, there's been a lot of good arguments for not bothering with the
maintainer name. You can get that from the pkg home page tho...

Oh ! Where can I read about these? They aren't mentioned in
deb-control(5) or /usr/share/doc/dpkg nor /usr/share/doc/dpkg-dev ...

Hi all,
I'm having issues with getting parted's reiserfs support to work in a
way that complies with Debian policy. The issue is that parted dlopen()s
libreiserfs.so and libdal.so (from the libreiserfs-0.3-{0,dev}
packages) for its reiserfs support. This is fine, but

I'd like to make a "best practices" note in the developers-reference
about how to indicate the upstream author, author's email, and home
page in the package description. I think this is would be a nice
thing.
Ideally debian/control's known fields would be extended, e.g.,
Upstream-Maintainer:
I have a question for further discussion, which I'm unsure about. May
or may not be a policy issue.
Is it a good practice for SGML or XML documentation to ship with
source?
Pros:
- providing source lets contributors make patches more easily
Cons:
- wastes disk space
- why bother, just get
