If a -dev package is architecture independent -- for example contains only a symlink from the .so to the .so.X file and possibly a .pc file -- what's the best dependency on the libfooX package, keeping in mind binnmuability?
Depends: libfooX (>= ${source:Version}), libfooX (<< ${source:Version}.1~) as suggested by lintian seems to me to be the best choice. Just to be clear, libfoo-dev is Architecture: all and libfooX is Architecture: any. Cheers, Shaun -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
