Re: RFS: mosquitto (updated version)

[Roger Light <roger@atchoo.org>]

Hi there,

I've got a query about binary package names for my package below:

* Package name    : mosquitto
 Version         : 0.9.1-1
 Upstream Author : Roger Light <roger@atchoo.org>
* URL             : http://mosquitto.org/
* License         : BSD
 Section         : net

It builds these binary packages:
libmosquitto0 - MQTT version 3.1 client library
libmosquitto0-dev - MQTT version 3.1 client library, development files
libmosquittopp0 - MQTT version 3.1 client C++ library
libmosquittopp0-dev - MQTT version 3.1 client C++ library, development files
mosquitto  - MQTT version 3 compatible message broker
mosquitto_pub - Mosquitto command line publish client
mosquitto_sub - Mosquitto command line subscribe client
python-mosquitto - MQTT version 3.1 client library, python bindings

- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mosquitto
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable
main contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/m/mosquitto/mosquitto_0.9.1-1.dsc

Should the library -dev package names have the SO version number in or
not? In other words, should libmosquitto0-dev actually be
libmosquitto-dev? I've seen packages both with and without an SO
version.

Thanks,

Roger
