List of specific binary packages to be promoted to main: TBD
Specific binary packages built, but NOT to be promoted to main: TBD

These are library packages, both to go to main. They implement the CPDB protocol. Frontends (print dialogs) need both, backends need only the first one. As they are libraries they usually do not need to get seeded, they will get pulled in through dependencies of the packages, containing print dialogs of CPDB backend, especially now cpdb-backend-cups and cpdb-backend-file (see the other MIRs) and later also GTK and Qt.

libcpdb-libs-common1
libcpdb-libs-frontend1

These are the headers and other development files, to be treated as usually -dev files of libraries in Main are treated. The third package is for convenience, so that if you want to create/build a frontend, you build-depend only on libcpdb-libs-frontend-dev and if you want to to create/build a backend you simply build-depend on libcpdb-libs-backend-dev.

libcpdb-libs-backend-dev
libcpdb-libs-common-dev
libcpdb-libs-frontend-dev

This is actually only an example/demo frontend. Can stay in Universe. Or should this be merged into the libcpdb-libs-frontend-dev binary package then?

libcpdb-libs-tools
