problems with dh_makeshlibs

[matze <matze@sindominio.net>]

hi,

i'm trying to create my first package and like the most beginners i'm 
encountering problems. the package (kbiff - biff clone for kde) contains a 
shared library named kbiff.so which is installed in /usr/lib. dh_makeshlibs 
doesn't create the shlibs file and so i patched dh_makeshlibs to know why. it 
seems, that the script expects libraries in the format 
<libname>.so.<majornr>. the kbiff library is named kbiff.so and so it can't 
be found. 
what have i to do in that case?

thanX in advance

matze
