Hi Michael,
thank you for providing new Debian packages for EPICS 3.14.12.
Unfortunately I can only use them on squeeze but not on Ubuntu quantal
because quantal does not provide perlapi-5.10.1 but only perlapi-5.14.2.
Is it really necessary to depend on a fixed version of Perl or can you
also use something like "perl-base >= 5.10.1"?
Best regards,
Martin
Please re-test with version 3.14.12.3-4 in squeeze/staging.
This moves the EPICS::* perl modules from epics-perl into epics-dev. The
five scripts like caget.pl are moved from epics-dev into epics-perl.
Appropriate Conflicts entries are added to both. This leads to a
situation where APT must briefly remove one or the other during the
up/downgrade, but this didn't cause any problems when I tested it.
epics-dev gets a new dependency on "perl (>= 5.10.0)".

You almost certainly won't be able to use a libCap5.so that was built against
Perl 5.10 on Perl 5.14. I introduced the Perl version number and architecture
into the path to libCap5.so to allow different Perl versions and architectures
to coexist in the same install directory.
Understood. I'll keep the same conservative dependency for the package
containing libCap5 (ie. perlapi-5.10.1).
Sounds like a good idea. The Perl5 major version number matters for this
package, and it sounds like you might have to have more than one version of
that package available for install depending on which Perl5 version is in use
on the system — I would hope that dpkg can do something like that.
It would seem that this is not the case (I hadn't looked before). Only
one version of perl can be installed. /usr/bin/perl is an executable
provided by the package 'perl-base'. In contrast /usr/bin/python is a
symlink to 'python2.7', an executable from the package 'python2.7-minimal'.
