Package: libparted1.8-dev Version: 1.8.8.git.2008.03.24-11.1 Severity: important
Hi, libparted.la declares a dependency on uuid and devmapper: dependency_libs=' -ldl -ldevmapper -luuid' Yet the package is missing the required Depends. A package that uses libtool to links against libparted will thus fail to build if uuid-dev and libdevmapper-dev are not installed. On the other hand, /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libparted.pc does not list uuid and devmapper as dependency. So either the pkg-config file is incorrect or the libtool dependencies were added errorneously. Either way, this should be fixed (by either stripping -ldevmapper -luuid from libparted.la or removing libparted.la, or by declaring the missing Depends).
