I searched for `pkg-symbolshelper` but couldn't find it.
```
$ apt-cache search pkg-symbolshelper
$ apt-cache search symbolshelper
pkg-kde-tools - various packaging tools and scripts for KDE Applications
```
It seems that `pkgkde-symbolshelper` is included in `pkg-kde-tools` package,
is this it?
No matter what tools you use, maintainers are ultimately responsible for the
correctness of debian files.
"debian/rules" line: 1751
```
-dpkg-gensymbols -P$(d_gpng) -p$(p_gpng) -l$(d_lib)
```
This is a specification to ignore even if the `dpkg-gensymbols` returns an
error. Until binutils version 2.40-2, there was no prefix '-' in the command
to specify that errors were to be ignored.
As of now, there are no problems with the package dependencies, so I'm not
saying you absolutely need to fix it, but you may not notice the problem if
it occurs in the future.
Thank you,
