Bug#553111: baycomepp: postinst-must-call-ldconfig /usr/lib/baycomfpga_init.so by the dynamic library loader. Therefore, the package must call "ldconfig" in its postinst script.

[Manoj Srivastava]

Package: baycomepp
Version: 0.10-12
Severity: serious
Justification: The package installs shared libraries in a directory controlled
User: lintian-maint@...
Usertags: postinst-must-call-ldconfig

Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 8.1.1 (ldconfig) for details.

,----[ 8.1.1 ldconfig ]
| Any package installing shared libraries in one of the default library
| directories of the dynamic linker (which are currently /usr/lib and /lib) or a
| directory that is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf[47] must use ldconfig to update the
| shared library system.
|
| The package maintainer scripts must only call ldconfig under these circumstances:
|
|  * When the postinst script is run with a first argument of configure, the
|    script must call ldconfig, and may optionally invoke ldconfig at other times.
|  * When the postrm script is run with a first argument of remove, the script
|    should call ldconfig.

The attached patch fixes this bug, but the output of dpkg-shlibdeps
doesn't make me happy:
