Description

I did made the link in liboncilla-dev using a package diversion to modify librci0.4-dev .

However the change of the library name broke the hardcoded change. I will now again change the diversion.

Ultimateley this diversion was a quick and dirty fix. Please just provide a link librci0.4.so -> librci0.4.so.0.4.0.

Apparently you explicitely used NAMELINK_SKIP to remove these links. what is the reason behind ?

If the link are not present :

  • It makes pkg-config fails, the naming change of the library ultimately made my controller stop working after an update :/
  • It breaks debian packaging policy. Again for compatibility with other software you have to follow this policy, and if you don't you have to come with a really good justification.

NAMELINK-SKIP no longer necessary, since library now encodes version number
