dh_sodeps - generate library dependencies for development *.so symlinks
SYNOPSIS
dh_sodeps [debhelper options] [-Vversioninfo]
DESCRIPTION
dh_sodeps is a helper program that generates library dependencies for *.so symlinks that are typically found in the library development
packages.
It basically looks for usr/lib/*.so in the package build directory, finds all local arch specific packages that actually contain targets of
those symlinks and adds dependencies on the discovered packages to the "so:Depends" substitution variable. Dependencies are strict by
default, i.e. (=${binary:Version}) if the package containing *.so is arch specific or (>=${source:Version}) if it is arch independent.
OPTIONS -Vversioninfo, --version-info=versioninfo
Use the specified version information for dependencies. If this option is not specified, dh_sodeps will generate a strict dependency as
explained above. Please note that you don't need to enclose the value in brackets. dh_sodeps will do this automatically.
-Xitem, --exclude item
Do not calculate dependencies for *.so files that contain "item" anywhere in their path/filename. You may use this option multiple
times to build up a list of things to exclude.

dh_shlibdeps - calculate shared library dependencies
SYNOPSIS
dh_shlibdeps [debhelperoptions] [-Lpackage] [-ldirectory] [-Xitem] [--params]
DESCRIPTION
dh_shlibdeps is a debhelper program that is responsible for calculating shared library dependencies for packages.
This program is merely a wrapper around dpkg-shlibdeps(1) that calls it once for each package listed in the control file, passing it a list
of ELF executables and shared libraries it has found.
OPTIONS -Xitem, --exclude=item
Exclude files that contain item anywhere in their filename from being passed to dpkg-shlibdeps. This will make their dependencies be
ignored. This may be useful in some situations, but use it with caution. This option may be used more than once to exclude more than
one thing.
-- params
Pass params to dpkg-shlibdeps(1).
-uparams, --dpkg-shlibdeps-params=params
This is another way to pass params to dpkg-shlibdeps(1). It is deprecated; use -- instead.
-ldirectory[:directory ...]
With recent versions of dpkg-shlibdeps, this option is generally not needed.
It tells dpkg-shlibdeps (via its -l parameter), to look for private package libraries in the specified directory (or directories --
separate with colons). With recent versions of dpkg-shlibdeps, this is mostly only useful for packages that build multiple flavors of
the same library, or other situations where the library is installed into a directory not on the regular library search path.
-Lpackage, --libpackage=package
With recent versions of dpkg-shlibdeps, this option is generally not needed, unless your package builds multiple flavors of the same
library or is relying on debian/shlibs.local for an internal library.
It tells dpkg-shlibdeps (via its -S parameter) to look first in the package build directory for the specified package, when searching
for libraries, symbol files, and shlibs files.
If needed, this can be passed multiple times with different package names.
EXAMPLES
Suppose that your source package produces libfoo1, libfoo-dev, and libfoo-bin binary packages. libfoo-bin links against libfoo1, and should
depend on it. In your rules file, first run dh_makeshlibs, then dh_shlibdeps:
dh_makeshlibs
dh_shlibdeps
This will have the effect of generating automatically a shlibs file for libfoo1, and using that file and the libfoo1 library in the
debian/libfoo1/usr/lib directory to calculate shared library dependency information.
If a libbar1 package is also produced, that is an alternate build of libfoo, and is installed into /usr/lib/bar/, you can make libfoo-bin
depend on libbar1 as follows:
dh_shlibdeps -Llibbar1 -l/usr/lib/bar
