Package: openslide
Version: 4.0.1+dfsg-1
Severity: serious
After installing pkgconf and libopenslide-dev in a fresh sid container:
# pkg-config --libs openslide
Package glib-2.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `glib-2.0.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'glib-2.0', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'gio-2.0', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'gobject-2.0', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'cairo', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'libxml-2.0', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'libtiff-4', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'libopenjp2', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'libjpeg', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'libpng', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'zlib', required by 'openslide', not found
Package 'libzstd', required by 'openslide', not found
pkg-config is the supported way to determine how to link with
OpenSlide, and pkg-config requires the .pc files mentioned in
openslide.pc's Requires.private to exist, so libopenslide-dev isn't
useful without the -dev packages that provide these files. By policy
3.5, libopenslide-dev must therefore depend on those packages.
A couple such dependencies were added in #1146800; see previous
discussion there.

Closes: 1146814 1146883
Changes:
openslide (4.0.1+dfsg-2) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* d/rules: simplify and complement formats fetching.
This change adds support for fetching specifications for argos, dicom,
huron and zeiss formats, and makes the listing a little more readable,
with less duplicates in the d/rules file.
* d/openslide-formats.3.xml: add support for new formats.
This change adds support to inject the argos, dicom, huron and zeiss
formats into the xsl template.
* d/openslide-formats.3: refresh the manual page to openslide 4.0.1
and also document support for argos, dicom, huron and zeiss file
formats. (Closes: #1146814)
* d/control: update file formats support list.
The change includes a subtle wording change in order to make the delta
between the package description and the exhaustive list of supported
format less problematic.
* d/rules: ensure openslide-format(3) version consistency.
This change implements a check at an early stage of the package
construction, in order to make sure that there is no delta between the
new upstream version and its shipped documentation.
* d/rules: provide a clean-man target to clean things up.
This is a useful shortcut to clear artifacts downloaded during a
refresh of openslide-formats(3) manual.
* d/control: provide complete libopenslide-dev dependencies.
(Closes: #1146883)
* d/t/run-pkgconf: new autopkgtest.
This change introduces, and enables via d/t/control, the script
run-pkgconf that ensures the list of dependencies of the package
libopenslide-dev is complete.
