Code review comment for lp:~tkluck/ubuntu/oneiric/goocanvas/v2

Micah: it would be great if you could have a look at the debian package, up at
https://code.launchpad.net/~tkluck/debian/sid/goocanvas/v2.0

In the debian version, the binary package is called libgoocanvas-2.0,
and it installs the files

debian/tmp/usr/lib/libgoocanvas-2.0.so.*

Is this right?

The debian policy manual mentions having to call ldconfig to make a
libgoocanvas-2.0.so symlink, or including the symlink in the package.
I don't do either at the moment. What is the right thing to do? There
is also some SHLIBS things in rules that I just copied from the old
package:

DEB_SHLIBDEPS_INCLUDE_libgoocanvas-2.0 := debian/libgoocanvas-2.0/usr/lib
DEB_DH_MAKESHLIBS_ARGS_libgoocanvas-2.0 := -V"libgoocanvas-2.0 (>= 2.0)"

I don't know if this is right.

I don't think this could make it into debian testing in time, as it
isn't even in sid right now. The debian maintainer seems to be rather
busy atm. Should I submit it to Ubuntu separately at some point?
