Re: [MoM] Re: fast: Add further dependencies to enable chroot / cowbuilder to build



Hi Shayan,

I'm occupied by real life until next weekend - so my response time
is way longer than usual.

That's not very different to what happened quite frequently to me. ;-)

I personally like to use d-shlibmove since it prevents you from making
several mistakes in library packaging.  However, since I habe no time
to provide technical help this week its fine if you find any solution.
Usually d-shlibmove turns out a bit tricky.  If something is missing
you can try '--override' as for instance in the package libdisorder.

I usually ignore these lintian issues when its not an actual library
package.

May be you can ask on debian-mentors@lists.debian.org meanwhile.
