Hello Stefano,

I'm only a debian user and a developer of a 32bits application (PCSX2) so I 
don't know anything about the UDD workflow. If you can share me some input I 
will be glad.

>>BTW, if you want to expose a bunch of discrete changes like this, the UDD 
>>(bzr) workflow can work nicely.
Yes you can upgrade to latest cg if you want. My PCSX2 users only need the 
multiarch feature which will become more critical because Ubuntu advises people 
to use a 64 bits versions.

>>Why are we splitting libcg from libcggl? ....
I split them for no particular reason. I saw that control file provide libcg 
and libcggl so I create two packages. They can be merged. Maybe we can do a 
review of the package slit.
/usr/include/*          -> libcg-dev
/usr/lib/*                 -> libcg
remaining (doc, bin) -> nvidia-cg-toolkit or rename the package if you want. 
Maybe we can split all doc into a libcg-doc (or nvidia-cg-toolkit-doc) but my 
packager skill is beginner.

I didn't understand anything on the prerm/postint stuff. What do you want to do 
exactly?

>> I suggest enganging with the Debian maintainer about this, as well
Nvidia-cg-toolkit seems abandoned on debian. It didn't get any update from a 
long time (latest was on 19 Mar 2009). Current version is deprecated by Nvidia 
which send a "please upgade message" to all bts bug report ! For information 
there is another reverse-dependency : ogre-plugins-cgprogrammanager (at least 
on debian)

Cheers,
Gregory
