We're open to splitting the packages into -lib, -dev and -doc
components, but have not prioritized that work internally, yet.
Please do consider doing this. As an Ubuntu user of the CG toolkit for
many years it has been annoying to download several megabytes of
documentation and examples I am not going to look at just to use the
lib. It is not complicated to set your debian folder to make multiple
debs so you shouldn't need to worry about it complicating your build
process. :)
Andrew, I understand that from an end-user perspective. But our
build, test and release process is SDK-oriented, and is done on
various RedHat machines, so I _do_ worry about complicating all
of that... As it is we need our own custom dpkg-deb binary.
It does seem like something that _could_ be done downstream...
