Hi everyone,
I am trying to create a .deb package for a procps branch[1] by Robert
Love (different from the official procps deb). In the program's
source directory, it has a shared library, many binaries, and many
man pages for those binaries.
I read, and followed the instructions given in the new Maintainers'
Guide but there are some doubts that this guide didn't address.
1. Is there any way to configure the files in debian/ to install
this shared library?
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: could not find any packages for
(libproc.so.2.0.18)
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: unable to find dependency information for
shared library libproc (soname 2.0.18, path , dependency field
Depends)
2. What should I do so that I can copy those man pages in the
program's source directory to the respective directory?
[~/procps/procps-2.0.18] $ \ls *.1 *.5 *.8
free.1 pkill.1 skill.1 snice.1 sysctl.conf.5 top.1 vmstat.8
watch.1 pgrep.1 pmap.1 slabtop.1 sysctl.8 tload.1 uptime.1 w.1
3. I have a couple of files in debian/ called procps-doc.{docs,files}.
It gives this error message when i try to do dpkg-buildpackage.
cp: cannot stat `#DOCS#': No such file or directory
dh_installdocs: command returned error code 256
make[1]: *** [binary-common] Error 1
Any idea what I should put in the procps-doc.{docs,files} files?

Kindly advice please. Really appreciate it.
