Thanks, Paul.

I don't know if the original bug was filed using a template or not, but
using dpkg-shlibdeps doesn't make sense in this case because the newlisp
binary doesn't link against the specified libraries.

Instead, the newlisp *scripts* (which are installed under
/usr/share/newlisp) contain explicit commands to make the newlisp
interpreter load the necessary libraries (via dlopen).

I can be really wrong here, but I don't see another way to tackle this
problem.  Either way, I don't want to hijack this thread either, but I
just thought I'd point this out.

Thanks,
