Hi
There seems to be a small typo in 8.6.4.1 refering to the path where
*.shlibs files are located? It says currently:
The shlibs control files for all the packages currently installed on
the system. These are normally found in /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.symbols,
but packages should not rely on this and instead should use dpkg-query
- --control-path package shlibs if for some reason these files need to
be examined.
Should that be /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.shlibs?
Regards,
Salvatore
