An alternative name I > could give this package is to make it a sub-package called "nettle-gmp" or > "nettle-bignum". Another alternative is to leave libhogweed.so* in the > nettle package, but I'd like to keep dependencies (gmp) to a minimum. Either way I wouldn't call it a blocker but I did have a crazy idea I'd like your opinion on. What about not even creating a "nettle" binary package? Instead create 5 sub-packages exclusively. libnettle libhogweed nettle-tools libnettle-devel libhogweed-devel I like separating the devel packages so if you install one you don't automatically pull in the other library. I don't see anywhere where this isn't allowed...
