Subject: dpkg: Packaging Manual - Shared Libraries clarification
To: submit@bugs.debian.org
X-Mailer: bug 3.1.0

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.0.20
Severity: wishlist

I just spent several hours fighting with my guile package because
the upstream source created the symlink on the disk before the
library file.  Unfortunately, I deleted the symlink, and then
recreated it.  This doesn't change the order on the
disk, which was very confusing.

I think it would be helpful to mention that 'ls -f' is a
useful debugging method to verify that the debian/rules file
creates the library and the symlink in the proper order on the disk.  

Cheers,

 - Jim
