This is because libasprintf (in gettext-base) and libgettextpo (in gettext) are the only *supported* libraries. The other libraries are not supported: They are not documented by upstream, and packages should not use them, so that's why they do not have a shlibs file. They are for internal gettext use only. > If now an application > is linked against one of the others as e.g. > | $ objdump -p blender-bin | grep NEEDED.*gettext > | NEEDED libgettextlib-0.14.6.so Hmm, this is a very bad thing which was never supposed to happen. Does Blender *really* need libgettextlib? Previously, there was a dependency on libgettextpo, but I don't see anything like that in the Depends file anymore. Seems like a bug in Blender. I think you should have not introduced a dependency on libgettextlib without discussing about it first. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
