* Make `./build debian' do a true Debian source package based
build; provide the old style build as `./build debian-template'
+ * Have `wiringpi' be a metapackage, and use `wiringpi-tools' as
+ the name of the command line tool package.
+ * Install `gpio' setuid root, and world-executable. Given that `gpio'
+ doesn't take the kind of precations necessary to avoid offering
+ vulnerabilities, this probably enables all programs on the pi to
+ become root. However, we do this to avoid howls of protest from users
+ whose cgi programs may no longer work, etc.
+ * Fix .so symlinks not to refer to build location (!) due to dh_install
+ running after the corrected symlinks are made in debian/rules.
+ * Remove -lm from gpio link line. It is not used, and I'm told that
+ introducing it as a dependency is not desirable. Not linking with -lm
+ will ensure that we detect such mistakes.
+ * Do not install COPYING.LESSER, which is redundant on a Debian
+ derivative (which will have /usr/share/common-licences).
+ * Better installation of the examples: put the .sh exaples in
+ wiringpi-tools, but put all the examples in
+ /usr/share/doc/wiringpi/examples no matter which package they're in;
+ and do not compress any of them.
+ * Add `Replaces: wiringpi' to the other packages, to smooth the upgrade
+ from the pre-split packages.
+ * Add -I$(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/include to devLib Makefile to make sure
+ it picks up the in-tree copies during a Debian source package build.
