Package: mklibs-copy
Version: 0.1.20
Severity: normal
Basically, there's not enough docs to differentiate this package from
mklibs. Problems include:
Description: Shared library reduction script
mklibs-copy produces a minimal set of shared libraries that contain
only the libs which are required by a particular set of executables.
Description: Shared library reduction script
mklibs produces cut-down shared libraries that contain only the
routines required by a particular set of executables. This is
useful when building closed systems where disk space is at a premium,
such as the Debian installer.
It's impossible to tell from these descriptions why mklibs-copy is a separate
package or how it differs from mklibs or why you'd want to install it instead
of mklibs.
mklibs-copy(1):
mklibs-small - make a minimal set of libraries
^^^^^
copy
The remainder of the man page is again identical to mklibs(1), so it's
difficult to chose between the two commands.
mklibs-readelf(1);
mklibs - prints informations about ELF shared objects and executables
^^^^^^ ^
mklibs-readelf "information" is not pluralised with an "s"
