Bug#862126: src:zipios++: FTBFS with cppunit 0.14 (cppunit-config removed, errors ignored)

[Rene Engelhard <rene@debian.org>]

Package: src:zipios++
Version: 0.1.5.9+cvs.2007.04.28-6 
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

[ cppunit 0.14 is not in Debian yet, see #861718. Thus normal for now ]

On a rebuild test using ratt I noticed your package doesn't build with
cppunit 0.14:

[...]
dh build --with autotools-dev
   dh_testdir
   dh_update_autotools_config
   dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig
   dh_auto_configure
        ./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --includedir=\${prefi
x}/include --mandir=\${prefix}/share/man --infodir=\${prefix}/share/info --sysco
nfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-silent-rules --libdir=\${prefix}/lib/x
86_64-linux-gnu --libexecdir=\${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --disable-maintaine
r-mode --disable-dependency-tracking
[...]

[...]

So here it doesn't find cppunit-config (cppunit-config was removed in
0.14.0) but still continues. Which then "of course" fails since there's
no -lcppunit on linking:

cppunit 0.14 removed cppunit-config.

You should use pkg-config for it now. (that one is available since
long.)

I put my package for testing to
https://people.debian.org/~rene/libreoffice/5.4/cppunit/
