dh_shlibdeps generates dependency on uninstalled library
Hi,
dh_shlibdeps in my debian/rules seems to generate a dependency on a package
that is not even installed on my system.
% pwd
/u/thaths/local-build/gaspell/0.30/gaspell-0.30
% ldd ./gaspell | grep aspell
libaspell.so.8 => /usr/lib/libaspell.so.8 (0x40018000)
% dpkg --info ../gaspell_0.30-6_i386.deb

As you can clearly see, the .deb generated when I run dpkg-buildpackage
-rfakeroot depends on libaspell6 which is not even installed on my system.
% dpkg --list | grep libaspell
ii libaspell-dev 0.32.6-1 Headers for developing applications with
asp
ii libaspell8 0.32.6-1 The aspell spell checker runtime
libraries.
% grep libaspell6 /var/lib/dpkg/*
/var/lib/dpkg/status:Replaces: libaspell0, libaspell1, libaspell2,
libaspell3, libaspell4, libaspell5, libaspell6, aspell (<= 0.28.2.1-2)
/var/lib/dpkg/status-old:Replaces: libaspell0, libaspell1, libaspell2,
libaspell3, libaspell4, libaspell5, libaspell6, aspell (<= 0.28.2.1-2)
grep: /var/lib/dpkg/updates: Is a directory
What gives. I am setting DH_COMPAT to 1.
Thanks.
