The important message is: please use pkg-config and not some package-specific configuration mechanism (as also already pointed out by Vincent). Otherwise, you (and/or upstream) will suffer from an unnecessary maintenance burden in case you ever want to (or in case we need to) cross-build that source package. For now though it should be sufficient to move the file into an architecture specific path. A bit OT: the old-style-config-script lintian description links to a 404 page on sources.debian.net. Maybe this link should be updated? Is there a way to create a link to a file on sources.debian.net where, if the version doesn't exist anymore, it will automatically fall-back to the next highest version? Thanks! cheers, josch
