Plugins cause lintian errors

[Andreas Rottmann <a.rottmann@gmx.at>]

I have a source package that creates several .debs. One of them is a
shared library package, which also contains a shared lib which is
installed in /usr/lib/ucxx/plugins/native/ucxx.so. As one can imagine,
this is not a normal shared lib, but a plugin (loaded explicitly at
run time).

This makes lintian croak:

E: libucxx0: shlib-missing-in-control-file ucxx.so usr/lib/ucxx/plugins/native/ucxx.so

I think lintian should silently ignore this shared lib, since it's not
installed into a standard directory (/lib, /usr/lib) and has a
non-standard name and thus will never be linked by any other package
(but instead loaded at run-time).

I also get a similiar lintian error with another package, which
contains no other shared libraries but the plugin:

E: libucxx0-python: no-shlibs-control-file usr/lib/ucxx/plugins/native/python.so

I guess this has the same reasons.

Anybody got a clue what to do to kill those errors?

Thanks,
        Andy
