Re: Package with CMAKE based C library

[Werner Detter <werner@aloah-from-hell.de>]

Hi KI7MT, 
hi everybody

thanks for your reply - I'm currently building the package with cdbs, debian/rules 
right now implements:

#!/usr/bin/make -f
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk
#include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/patchsys-quilt.mk
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/cmake.mk
#export DH_VERBOSE = 1

binary-post-install/%::
        dh_installchangelogs CHANGELOG

It build's the package. So far, so good. But I'm still wondering what
needs to be done to split the package into "libcmime" and "libcmime-dev" :) 

In other words: how do i tell the packaging process to create two packages and
to put: 

/usr/lib/libcmime.so.0.1 
/usr/lib/libcmime.so.0.1.14

into the "main" package, and 

/usr/lib/libcmime.so (symlink to 0.1.14)
/usr/include/cmime/*.h
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/cmime.pc

into the -dev package


Cheers,
Werner
