Bug#227867: libxrender1: libXrender diversion breaks libXrender.so link



Package: libxrender1
Version: 0.8.3-4
Severity: normal

If libxrender1/xlibs/xlibs-dev are installed without libxrender1-dev,
then you will end up with a broken libXrender.so symlink.  This would
have been harmless except that libXrender.a still exists and is valid.

This may cause shared libraries to be accidentally built with the
static libXrender library.  So either the libXrender.so symlink should
be made valid in this situation or we should divert libXrender.a as
well.
