Hello, I just made new lib-packages 2.96 and 0.96 ; there I use versioninfo 3:0:0 for libghemical and 1:0:0 for liboglappth ; I really wasn't familiar with libtool versioninfo rules (current:revision:age) until now. I still kept the data directory LIBVERSION-based, not SONAME based ; I still think this is better even though you probably need to keep the library and data packages one-to-one related. :( I'm afraid using SONAME would confuse ordinary users to much... > By the way, mopac7 introduced the same problem, I already uploaded it to > Debian though, but it did not arrive in the archive yet. I looked the mopac numbers but those looked OK to me ; please tell me more detailed if there are problems (mopac has 1:13:0 where "revision" has increased steadily release by release). Thanks for your advice, Tommi
