Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.8.4.0
Severity: normal
Hi,
At this end of "10.2 Libraries", there are several lines about including la
files in binary packages, in particular:
Packages that use libtool to create shared libraries should include the .la
files in the -dev package
This is in contradiction to the current release goal
http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/LAFileRemoval
I think that policy must be adapted to reflect the current position of Debian
on this subject.
Regards,
Vincent
