I really meant `rules' here, instead of `guidelines.' (Note, that English
is my 2nd language, so please don't discuss every single word of such
quick messages in too much detail--it's too likely that I haven't found
that best term for something.)

Please let me note, that the `buggy ldconfig policy' is documented in the
Packaging Manual, which I just took over a few days ago.
Also note, that I just sent a proposal of a new `maintainer policy' to
debian-policy. Everyone is invited to take part of the discussion.
Thanks,
