Package: libxmlrpc-core-c3-dev
Version: 1.59.03-2
Severity: serious

Hi!

After the recent package split, the .pc file does not work anymore, as
there's a missing dependency on the libxmlrpc-util-dev package, which
the .pc file depends on. On a pristine system after installing only
the libxmlrpc-core-c3-dev package and running pkgconf to get its flags
one gets this:

  ,---
  $ pkgconf --libs xmlrpc
  Package xmlrpc_util was not found in the pkg-config search path.
  Perhaps you should add the directory containing `xmlrpc_util.pc'
  to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
  Package 'xmlrpc_util', required by 'xmlrpc', not found
  Package 'xmlrpc_util', required by 'xmlrpc_expat', not found
  `---

After installing the missing dependency:

  ,---
  $ pkgconf --libs xmlrpc
  -lxmlrpc -lxmlrpc_xmlparse -lxmlrpc_xmltok -lxmlrpc_util
  `---

Setting to serious, because the intra-dependencies are an
implementation detail that packages depending on the core package or
using its .pc file should not need to be aware of, and this would
cause FTBFS issues now.

Thanks,
Guillem
