Package: libxmp-dev
Version: 4.6.3-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
the included CMake module at
`/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/cmake/libxmp/libxmp-config.cmake` contains the following
lines:
get_filename_component(libxmp_root
"${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../../../.." ABSOLUTE)
get_filename_component(libxmp_libdir "${CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR}/../.."
ABSOLUTE)
set(libxmp_incdir "${libxmp_root}/include")
These assume that the cmake file is always located under `/usr`, which is not
necessarily the case for usr-merged Debian, since `/lib` is symlinked to
`/usr/lib`.
CMake will automatically add `/` to `CMAKE_FIND_USE_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH`
_before_ `/usr` in case any root-level directory (eg. `/bin`) has been added to
`$PATH`.
This causes `libxmp_incdir` to become `//include`, which breaks any build using
this module since CMake will error out due to the non-existent directory.
I've seen other CMake modules use hacks that check if the root directory is `/`
and set it to `/lib` instead, but not sure if that is the best solution...

Changes:
libxmp (4.6.3-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* Build the PDF documentation without date information so that it is
identical across builds.
* Drop “Rules-Requires-Root: no” since it’s now the default.
* Drop “Priority: optional” since it’s now the default.
* Standards-Version 4.7.3, no further change required.
* Build with CMake; this produces modules that correctly handle /lib
linked to /usr/lib. Closes: #1117778.
