Aaah! OK, I failed to find that. I was looking at all of the package descriptions and didn't understand what I was supposed to do. Could you maybe change the last paragraph of the description for libstlport4.5-full? Somthing like this: This package contains the development symlinks and a static library for the full stlport implementation for those packages that cannot be compiled using libstbport4.5-dev. See README.Debian for details. > Unfortunately libstlport4.5-dev does not work very well > with nontrivial source code.

I am told that OOo uses certain stlport features which are not available in g++ (locales at a guess). So I guess we'll need to stay with -full, then. Thanks for your explaination, Chris
