Bug#455091: liblablgtk2-ocaml-dev: wants other lablgtk2 packages, but doesn't Depend on or Recommend them
Package: liblablgtk2-ocaml-dev
Version: 2.10.0-2
Severity: normal
$ lablgtk2
Cannot find file lablgtksourceview.cma.
More specifically, it looks like liblablgtk2-ocaml-dev's lablgtk2
wrapper also needs liblablgtk2-gnome-ocaml-dev, liblablgl-ocaml-dev,
liblablgtksourceview-ocaml-dev, and possibly some others (not sure).
This is in its default mode.
Looking at the shell script, I find that you can run it with -noextra
and avoid looking for the other stuff, but it seems to me that if the
wrapper in its default mode aborts if the other stuff can't be found,
the package should at least Recommend those others. I would prefer
for -noextra mode to be the default, but that might break backwards
compatibility.
