Does this mean you actually did keep zlibrarry in user/*? I'm concerned of spreading issues related to it to something that should be for packages people consider ready for Extras Some personal philosophy: People having issues in extras-devel is fine, its expected, if you don't want it, stay out. Bringing those issues into extras-testing is bad I think because it should reflect what things should be like in extras (if it was deemed ready immediately and promoted, not that issues shouldn't be left to be found in the QA process) which is bad. More philosophy: an end-user should not be seeing libraries in Extras. This is going to be enabled by default so anyone and everyone will see "zlibrary" as an installation option. What? I forgot, what is wrong with the solution of packaging zlibrary inside of fbreader rather than separately? is it really gaining an advantage by being a separate library? Even if one other component depends on it, is the amount of advantage of sharing zlibrary's really outweigh the headache of this? |

Re: New FBReader build in Extras-Devel
But I agree with you that it is strange to have a library in extras. HAM is something like an app store (from consumer point of view) and I can't imagine to have libraries in Ovi Store or Apples App Store so is there no way to release the library to the repository but without showing up in HAM? If Maemo should become more famous then it should be easy for beginners and none of them would understand what a library is and why "nothing" has happened after they have installed it.

What I'm not quite sure about is what happens if there is a new version of the library. As it won't show up in HAM, presumably it also won't show up when the user is notified about updates, so the user won't be able to update it. Is this correct? |

Putting it in libs shouldn't be a problem if the depends line requires the latest version. It's only depends on generic stuff like python2.5 (no specific version of 2.5 required) that is likely to cause problems. |
