Bug#814971: libpng12.so.0 without a merged /lib is now a broken symlink
Package: libpng12-dev
Version: 1.2.54-2
Severity: serious
Hi,
The fix for #766809 leaves libpng.so as a dangling symlink:
$ ls -l /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng*.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Feb 16 13:33 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng.so -> libpng12.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Feb 16 13:33 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so -> libpng12.so.0
$ ls -l /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng*.so*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Feb 16 13:33 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0 -> libpng12.so.0.54.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 154664 Feb 16 13:33 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpng12.so.0.54.0
This generates an ftbfs for any package that build depends on libpng-dev or libpng12-dev, thus the bug severity.
Happy hacking,
