Bug#1106809: tsocks: statically linked against glibc without a Built-Using: field
Package: tsocks
Version: 1.8beta5+ds1-2
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 7.8
Dear maintainer,
tsocks provides /usr/bin/saveme which is statically linked against glibc.
glibc is mostly is mostly licensed under the LGPL, which requires that
the full source code of the incorporating binary package be made
available. According to Debian Policy §7.8 [1] such a binary package
MUST list the glibc source package (and possibly others) in the
Built-Using: field.
Note that this has already been fixed in version 1.8beta5-9.4, but this
got lost as part of the rewrite of debian/rules to dh.
Regards
Aurelien
