So http://wiki.debian.org/RpathIssue do not apply to all shared libs, 
only public ones?



Currently the package generates an shlibs file and ldconfig snippets in 
postinst and postrm scripts.  Lintian then complains with these:

W: scenic-utils: postinst-has-useless-call-to-ldconfig
W: scenic-utils: postrm-has-useless-call-to-ldconfig

Is it wrong of dh_shlideps to include subdirectory below /usr/lib?

Is it sane to pass -X/usr/lib to dh_shlibdeps to suppress it?


Kind regards,

  - Jonas
