Problem with really long argument list to dpkg-shlibdeps
Hi,
[no need to CC me, I'm subscribed].
I'm trying to package Octaviz and I'm running into problems with
dpkg-shlibdeps. The package generates around 1000 binary
modules/plugins. Running dpkg-shlibdeps over these files makes for
really weird errors[1], due to the length of the command line passed to
dpkg-shlibdeps (at least that's what I believe). Shortening the line or
passing all files in a for-loop works alright.
Is there some best practice solution for this?

Beware, the extracted file has 5 MB. Look for line 17394, which is about
90k lines long.
Thanks
Thomas
