Package: aide
Version: 0.10-6.1

You may consider this as a reopening of Bug #87597.

While building this package for the hurd-i386 architecture, I noticed
that there is a hardcoded dependency on libc0.2, which does not exist.

Then I noticed about the debian/mkdep script, which seems like a hack.

It was my understanding that statically linked executables, by definition,
do not depend on libc at all, so the package dependency is artificial,
but if I'm missing anything and there is a real need to depend on the
libc of the day, then please do it in a portable way, which does not
need to be updated for every architecture. For example, you could
include a simple "hello world" program in the package source and just
compile and run dpkg-shlibdeps on it.

Thanks.
