On that note, I'm upstream and co-maintainer for a library package that is being overhauled. The upstream tarball is qof-0.6.0.tar.gz, the SONAME is libqof1, the package libqof1 and I want libqof1 >= 0.6.0 as a dependency for packages that use the library. Currently, the .pc file is qof-1.pc which probably needs to be changed. Taking this as an example, what *would* be the recommended name for the pc? Should it include the SONAME at all? Should it always use the lib prefix? Is there any convention on these filenames, independent of any distro? -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
