I maintain a package (hdf5) which contains a pure C library and a C++ interface. However, I'm pretty sure the C++ library isn't used by packages depending on it. In this case, is it necessary for the library to be renamed? -- .''`. Josselin Mouette /\./\ : :' : josselin.mouette@ens-lyon.org `. `' joss@debian.org `- Debian GNU/Linux -- The power of freedom
