Yes, I know. Looking at it, it appears that the presence of the pre-existing
binaries may actually be accidental (perhaps an error during the release
process?); I will discuss with the author. A "make clean; make" recompiles the
objects in question cleanly, at least on x86; I will submit a new build shortly.
The presence of the library (gtkscintilla, "moleskine" version) bundled in the
package is intentional; the library is a modified version (compatible licensing
- GPL) and is effectively unmaintained upstream so the gPHPEdit author hasn't
got much choice but to bundle it. There were apparently extensive discussions
during the Debian packaging process for the same reason (I understand they hate
multiple copies of libraries with a vengeance) and it was agreed there that
bundling is appropriate in this case. (Note I am treating "bundling of
libraries" and "distribution of precompiled binaries" as totally separate issues
here)
