According to the tag description¹, there are legitimate cases
where the library is not linked to libc, in which case lintian
will still complain. It looks like this is such a situation,
because the library is not underlinked.² So I would simply add an
override.
This issue was already discussed on the old list (Pkg-octave-devel)
a long time ago (november 2015, look for "octave-stk: current status
/ help needed" in the title).
The discussion resulted in the following overrides:
$ cat debian/octave-stk.lintian-overrides
# Ignore library-not-linked-against-libc warning
# since no symbol from libc is used in this mex-files:
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_dist_matrixx__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_dist_matrixy__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_dist_pairwise__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_distrib_bivnorm0_cdf__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_filldist_discr_mex__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_gpquadform_matrixx__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_gpquadform_matrixy__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_gpquadform_pairwise__.mex
octave-stk binary: library-not-linked-against-libc */__stk_mindist_mex__.mex
So, I don't understand why you still get warnings...
The overrides have been dropped some time ago:
