Hello,

thank you for bunch of useful links.

I put this line to my debian/rules:

dpkg-gensymbols -plibslv2-9 -Olibslv2-9.symbols

And I am getting output like this on build:

I did  copy/paste from terminal to my.symbols file and removed plus on  beginning of each line and added ~ to version.
http://lintian.debian.org/tags/symbols-file-contains-current-version-with-debian-revision.html

1) is it right?
2) if yes, should I leave line "dpkg-gensymbols -plibslv2-9 -Olibslv2-9.symbols" in debian/rules or remove it?

Lintian -IE giving only these lines here:
X: slv2: spelling-error-in-binary ./usr/bin/lv2_jack_host succesfully successfully
X: slv2: spelling-error-in-binary ./usr/bin/lv2_simple_jack_host succesfully successfully
