Bug Description
I am uploading to repo a tentative source package for Falcon, a programming language.
The package will be named falcon_0.8.5; it is actually a snapshot of a release candidate for version 0.8.5.
Project is located at http://
I need a bit of help to split the resulting binary packages into:
- Libraries
- Binaries
- Devel files
Libraries are mainly an "so" called falcon_engine which is virtually standalone and can provide
scripting support for applications.
It is accompanied by a series of modules stored (normally) in /usr/lib/falcon that offer additional
functionalities to the engine and to the scripts. The "RTL" module is nearly essential, through
Falcon can work without, and the other modules that are in the tentative package are highly important.
Binaries are a set of command line tools using the engine falcon to i.e. run standalone scripts.
The devel files include headings and a couple of utilities to simplify the setup of a minimal project
using Falcon.

I have succeeded in splitting the binary packages generated by this source package in three: the lib.so engine, the binary falcon interpreter and the development files. Now I wait for comments and reviews.
