Hi all,

last week I did an upload of the current version 3.2.3 libnl3 to experimental. 
Libnl >= 3.2 is for example necessary for network-manager.

Beginning from 3.2 upstream changed the soname changed from libnl3 to 
libnl3-200 and due to now correct .pc files it was possible to also create 
separate packages for the individual libraries instead of cramming all of them 
into one package.

So the question would be on how to proceed to get this into unstable without 
breaking to much.

Another question for the installer folks: should the udeb stay as it is, or 
should it be split too.


Thanks
Heiko
