Package: strigi-daemon Version: 0.3.9-1 Severity: important The strigi-daemon package ships -dev files (*.so) and public libraries:
/usr/lib/libsearchclient.so.0.3.9 /usr/lib/libstreamindexer.so.0.3.9 /usr/lib/libstreams.so.0.3.9 These libraries are used by other packages like strigi-client and strigi-applet and so should be split into separate lib and lib-dev packages. Policy says [1], that you should create one package for each lib, but imho it would be sufficient to combine them in one package as long as they have the same soverion number. What concerns me a bit, is that the soversion number matches the package version number. This is almost always a sign that upstream does not correctly use so-versioning. Although upstream uses cmake and not libtool, [2] is a good read, which explains when and how the soversion should be bumped. Maybe you can educate upstream about this.
