Interesting, it passes linda silently here, although lintian did issue a
shared library warning:

N: Processing source package softgun (version 0.10-1) ...
N: ----
N: Processing binary package softgun (version 0.10-1) ...
W: softgun: shared-lib-without-dependency-information ./usr/lib/softgun/dm9000.s

It seems that my mirror has an older version of linda, will update from
another mirror.

dm9000.so is in fact a plug-in module and not a standard shared library,
hence the linda and lintian warnings. I didn't find any special
considerations about this case in the manuals, although I may have
missed something.

Oops, that's what happens when you work with softdog and softgun at the
same time. Will fix.
