Bug#349678: libxft-dev: pkg-config file says requires xproto that don't exist
Package: libxft-dev
Version: 2.1.8.2-1
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks unrelated software
The file /usr/lib/pkgconfig/xft.pc says xft requires xproto, which is
available in no package, as stated by apt-file.
Even if it existed, there should be a dependency to the dev package
holding it.
That breaks all packages that build depend on libxft and rely on
pkg-config to get the compilation and linking flags (such as mozilla,
thunderbird, firefox...).
