Package: libcpupower-dev Version: 4.7.5-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: stretch
Hi, Please make libcpupower-dev depend on libcpupower1 (= ${binary:Version}), like it's usually done with all the other -dev packages. Currently it's possible to install libcpupower-dev but leave libcpupower1 not installed. It leads to FTBFS of mate-applets when building it with libcpupower instead of libcpufreq (using B-D:libcpupower-dev instead of libcpufreq-dev, and "--with-cpufreq-lib=cpupower" build flag). The linker shows an error message ("/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcpupower") and the build breaks. Installing libcpupower1 manually fixes the problem. CC'ing MATE Packaging Team just in case - if there will possibly be a migration of mate-applets to libcpupower someday, this issue will get in the way.
