Bug#818878: libusbip-dev (src:linux-tools): shipping LA file with dependency libs info

[Héctor Orón Martínez <zumbi@debian.org>]

Package: libusbip-dev
Version: 2.0+4.4-4
Severity: important

Hello,

  The source package linux-tools builds libusbip-dev which contains:
    /usr/lib/libusbip.la
  Then contents of such file contain dependency library information:
    # Libraries that this one depends upon.
    dependency_libs=' -lwrap -ludev'

  LA files are to be removed (or at least emptied) per release goal:
    https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/LAFileRemoval

  I am setting severity important, but feel free to raise if you believe this has higher severity impact.

Regards
