Can I double-check how that should work from a package naming
perspective?  I *think* that means we'd have:

- libinih0-$PVR, being the libraries themselves
- libinih0-debuginfo-$PVR, being the debugging symbols for the libraries
- inih-devel-$PVR, being the header, static libraries and pkgconfig files
- inih-$PVR.src, being the source code

Is that right?  In particular, is it right that the debuginfo name
matches the library, while the devel package doesn't?  Or should it only
be the source package that has a different name?

(The build linked above as rc2 has the debuginfo package as
inih-debuginfo, and the devel package as libinih-devel, but on
reflection that doesn't seem quite right to me.  If nothing else, I
think I'd expect to find the debug symbols in a package with the same
name as the package I'm debugging...)

Done, thank you for the suggestion!
