Final question before submitting GIMP package.
I have finished packaging GIMP for debian. The only question I have
now is about the .deb files. As it stands, I build two .deb files.
One has the static app gimp-XXX.deb and the other has the shared app
gimp-shared-XXX.deb. Both have the exact same debian.control files.
I wondered if this would be a problem. dpkg should do the right
thing, but I wondered if this might cause other trouble since the only
discriminating factor is the filename.
If anyone cares, I modified the configure script so that it added an
environment var to LIBS at the end instead of lXpm. Then in
debian.rules I do this:
build:
$(checkdir)
./configure
rm -f app/gimp
$(MAKE) DESIRED_MOTIF_LIB=/usr/X11/lib/libXm.a
touch build
build-shared:
$(checkdir)
./configure
rm -f app/gimp
$(MAKE) DESIRED_MOTIF_LIB=-lXm
touch build-shared
Note that I remove the binary so that it'll get relinked. The normal
build and binary targets build the static executable. There's a
build-shared and binary-shared for the shared version.
