Package: libyajl-dev Version: 2.1.0-2+b3 Severity: normal When statically linking software which uses libyajl, the linker can’t find libyajl as-is:
% ../configure LDFLAGS=-static % make […] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lyajl […] Copying the file helps: % sudo cp /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libyajl_s.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libyajl.a Is there a reason for this file to be shipped under a different name? The toolchain doesn’t seem to know about it :). If not, please rename the file.
