Bug#1060490: group-service: Please switch Build-Depends to systemd-dev
Source: group-service
Version: 1.4.0-2
Severity: normal
User: pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: systemd-dev
Hi,
your package group-service declares a Build-Depends on systemd and/or
udev.
In most cases, this build dependency is added to get the paths that
are defined in udev.pc or systemd.pc (via pkgconfig).
Since systemd_253-2 [1], these two pkgconfig files have been split
into a separate package named systemd-dev. This package is arch:all,
so even available on non-Linux architectures, which will simplify the
installation of upstream provided service files / udev rules.
To not make existing source packages FTBFS, the systemd and udev
package have a Depends: systemd-dev. This dependency will be removed
at some point though before trixie is released. Once this happens,
this issue will be bumped to RC.
Please update your build dependencies accordingly at your earliest
convenience.
If all you need is the systemd.pc or udev.pc pkgconfig file, please
replace any systemd or udev Build-Depends with systemd-dev. In most
cases that should be sufficient. If your package needs further
resources from systemd or udev to build successfully, it's fine to
keep those Build-Depends in addition to systemd-dev.
To ease stable backports, a version of systemd with those changes is
provided via bookworm-backports.
In case you have further questions, please contact the systemd team
at <pkg-systemd-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>.
On behalf of the systemd team, Michael
