If an official Debian package is ever to be added to the main Debian package repos, it shouldn't use /opt either per their lint guidelines https://lintian.debian.org/tags/dir-or-file-in-opt In any case, other packaging choices made for distros are not a suitable justification to diverge from Fedora packaging guidelines excluding use of /opt > > * The package possibly ought to have a -devel sub-RPM for the include files > > & .pc files, so they're separate from the runtime .so files > > > > [Xiangquan] Actually SGXSDK is package just for developers. That's true of lots of packages, but generally if there's a packaging shipping ELF libraries, normal practice is for the header/pkg-config files which are needed ONLY at compile time, to be separated from the ELF files which are needed at compile and execution time. https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/packaging-guidelines/#_devel_packages There can be exceptions, for example the above page notes "compilers often include development files in the main package because compilers are themselves only used for software development, thus, a split package model does not make any sense." but AFAICT, this sgx-sdk package doesn't contain compilers/toolchains, just a bunch of libraries & headers -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
