important for everyone compiling packages
Hi,
this patch attached takes care of the shared libraies in /usr/lib and makes
sure you get a dependency on thoe. It's a rude hack, and you will get one
warning for every library. For libraries in /lib, you get a warning that it
can't find them in /usr/lib. For libs in /usr/lib, you get warnings that it
can't find them in /lib. That's okay, the dependencies will be ok, because
it checks both, lib and usr/lib (one always works, one always fails).
I think you will also get warnings that it can't find the X libs in
/X11R6/lib or /usr/usr/X11R6/lib, depending on how you define
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
In any way, please add this patch. missing dependencies can be annoying.
It can also happen that you get a broken Depends: line otherwise. So just
add this for now.
I will give a notice when dpkg-dev has a dpkg-shlibdeps which works better.
Thanks,
Marcus
