Package: libpam0g-dev Version: 1.7.0-5 Severity: normal Dear Sam,
I am working on a new package which uses meson build system and requires libpam0g-dev. However the check fails with ../meson.build:14:10: ERROR: Dependency lookup for pam with method 'pkgconfig' failed: Could not generate cflags for pam: Package audit was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `audit.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'audit', required by 'pam', not found Adding libaudit-dev as a build dependency fixes the build, but my source doesn't use libaudit itself, so that feels suboptimal. I see pam.pc contains Requires.private: audit Does that mean that libpam0g-dev should Depends: libaudit-dev, or is this a meson issue? Many thanks for your help.
