Bug#822430: debian-policy: Please update 8.1.1 to use the "ldconfig" trigger instead

[Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>]

Package: debian-policy
Severity: normal

Hi,

Please update 8.1.1 to use the "ldconfig" trigger[1].

Possible wording could be:

"""
Any package installing shared libraries in one of the default library
directories of the dynamic linker (which are currently /usr/lib and
/lib) or a directory that is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf[60] must use
ldconfig to update the shared library system.

Any such package must have an "activate-noawait ldconfig" line in
their "triggers" control file.
"""
(replacing the entire section).

Alternative wordings welcome; I am not entirely certain the one above
is all that well.

Thanks,
~Niels
