The "loader"? The "linker"?) to satisfy runtime dependencies, Mm, not exactly. At build time you use libfoo.so; at runtime you use libfoo.so.VER. It just happens that the ELF version of "stubs" is trivial (a symlink). > From a multiarch point of view, perhaps the DLL could go > in /usr/lib/i586-mingw32msvc? Cf. bug #542865 - in the future we might actually have a "mingw32" mini-architecture, at which point these files would cause a package conflict. Maybe use /usr/i586-mingw32msvc/lib for now (the cross-build directory)? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
