Package: linda
Version: 0.3.19
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Hello,
This bug report is a little bit different from #357727 (linda: Linked
library dependency check false positive? (Or details appreciated.)).
Linda outputs the following warning with the passwd package:
W: passwd; A binary links against a library it does not use symbols from
(And I think the passwd package uses the right dependency, i.e. the ones
computed by dpkg-dev (${shlibs:Depends}).
passwd uses symbols from the /lib/libpam_misc.so.0, provided by the libpam0g
package.
But in the binary.py check, linda checks wether passwd depends on a
packages whose name starts with "libpam_misc", which is not the case.
The attached patch fixes this (but it is a little bit slower, and may not
be linda way (I don't use the lab)).
Kind Regards,
