great work, folks!  I just tried building silc-toolkit, and notice
that linda complains about the symlinked libraries not being
explicitly listed in the shlibs file:

[0 dkg at squeak silc-toolkit]$ tail ../silc-toolkit_1.1-1_i386.build 
dpkg-deb: building package `libsilc-1.1-1' in `../libsilc-1.1-1_1.1-1_i386.deb'.

i'm actually confused by this warning, because it doesn't look to me
like libsilc.so or libsilcclient.so are actually being provided by the
libsilc-1.1-1 binary package:

It would be nice to make it so that linda doesn't complain, however.

There also seem to be a couple errors with the irssi library built by
the silc-client package for me, though i'm not sure why this is.  I
can't see any reason for the "Permission denied" error here:

These were built on a primarily lenny (testing) machine, with an
exported version of the svn trunk for each project as of Sat, 16 Jun
2007 18:53:18 -0400.  The machine is *not* a pure chroot or anything
like that, unfortunately.

Sorry to be all questions and no help here, but i figured a report
would be useful.  It would be nice to have the packages be
lintian/linda clean at least before putting them into the archive.

Thanks again for all the great work!  Wish i could be at DebConf with
y'all.
