My comment about nothing using it was unrelated to that though.
Here's what you said:(08:04:51) pabs: BigMc: since alure is a library, I suggest that you read libpkg-guide to get familiar with packaging libraries (08:05:23) pabs: libpkg-guide does recommend libfoo1-dev instead of libfoo-dev, which is against best practices (08:07:36) pabs: BigMc: nothing in Debian depends on alure yet, so you won't need to worry about any transition issues
libpkg-guide says both names are ok for Alure, but of course I believe you when you say it's against best practices.
