I'm slowly getting rid of it, but I'll try to cut down on the linking meanwhile. The extra libs are probably due to xulrunner's pkg-config. > I get the following warning: > dh_clideps: Warning!

Fixed. > dh_clideps: Warning: Could not resolve moduleref: libblam.so for: blam.exe! dh_clideps is searching for libblam.so but we don't have the mono library search dir variable set to include the dir libblam.so is in, so it can't find it. This is harmless as we then run blam.exe from the same directory as libblam.so is, so it doesn't need to be installed in an easy-to-find place. > dh_clideps: Warning: No Debian dependency data for Atom.NET (0.4.3.27119__dfd513aadd65a3d3)! This happens because the file clideps isn't being created. On the other hand, I'm not allowed to run dh_makeclilibs because this is a private library (mono policy 6.1.1). It's fairly harmless because no other program links against it. That library on its way out and probably won't survive another revision (it's already been replaced upstream by the mono equivalent of 'a small shell script'). > > I don't know enough about mono to know how serious these are, so > please either fix them or explain to me why it's not needed ;) > > linda complains that: > E: blam; Uses cdbs and debhelper.mk, but debhelper Build-Depends is too old. > This package uses cdbs and includes debhelper.mk, but the version of > debhelper the package Build-Depends on is too old.

Always use the lintian from unstable to check your packages.) I do. I've just updated lintian but it won't give me those errors even with -i. Do you use any other switches? The new package is at the same place as before. It shouldn't have any problems now. cmn -- Carlos Martín Nieto | http://www.cmartin.tk Hobbyist programmer |
