Package: lsb-base
Version: 11.6
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where
appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?

Tried to run my licensed program "Maple". License verification failed.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Waterloo Maple Software technical support said their license manager
(and most
other licensed programs' managers) will not work without lsb-base being
installed. They recommended installing it.

They also recommended

ln -s /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib64/ld-lsb-x86-64.so.3

but this appears not to be necessary.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

Maple's license verification started working.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?

I expected it to work without needing to install a package that is a
default
part of most distributions. It should be a default part of Debian
installations.
