Hi,

Thanks for taking a look. I uploaded 17.0.272-1 which should address these issues.

    That's disappointing. I had hoped to get the new version into 24.04.

    Ah, right. I overlooked that part of the policy (section 8.1). Done.

The files do end up in /usr/lib/$(DEB_TARGET_MULTIARCH) because of the relative path, so I don't think I should change that. Otherwise I think the files will land in /usr/usr/lib/$(DEB_TARGET_MULTIARCH) which isn't what we want.
