  Description     : handoff library for GPE calendar

(Currently checking with upstream to see if a 0.0.2 release is possible
or whether a 0.0.1.cvs20070425 version string may be necessary.)

The source package libhandoff builds three binaries:

Package: libhandoff0
 libhandoff is used in the GPE Palmtop Environment to 
 cause another program instance to come to the 
 foreground. This is used when alarm triggers (like atd)
 wake the device and then need to load another program to
 show the reason for the device waking up. When  
 gpe-calendar starts it looks at a well known location to 
 find another instance of itself. If it does, it tells 
 that instance to grab the focus.

Package: libhandoff-dev
Depends: libhandoff0 (= ${binary:Version}), libglib2.0-dev
Description: handoff library for GPE calendar (development files)
 libhandoff is used in the GPE Palmtop Environment to 
 cause another program instance to come to the 
 foreground.
 .
 This package contains the development files for
 libhandoff.

Package: libhandoff0-dbg
Depends: libhandoff0 (= ${binary:Version})
Description: handoff library for GPE calendar (debug symbols)
 libhandoff is used in the GPE Palmtop Environment to 
 cause another program instance to come to the 
 foreground.
 .
 This package contains the debug symbols for
 libhandoff.

This package is necessary for gpe-calendar to update which in turn is
necessary because libeventdb has changed SONAME and ABI.
