Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.18.6 Severity: normal Control: block 818873 with -1
Hi Guillem, dpkg-shlibdeps with multiple -l options works counterintuitively - the paths are searched in the reverse order they were given. This causes a problem when building gcc-5-cross (#818873) which calls dpkg-shlibdeps -Tdebian/libgnat-5-s390x-cross.substvars -l/lib/s390x-linux-gnu -l/usr/lib/s390x-linux-gnu -l/s390x-linux-gnu/lib -l/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib -l/«PKGBUILDDIR»/gcc/debian/tmp/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib -l/«PKGBUILDDIR»/gcc/debian/tmp/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib debian/libgnat-5-s390x-cross/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib/libgnat-5.so.1 debian/libgnat-5-s390x-cross/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib/libgnarl-5.so.1 and finds /«PKGBUILDDIR»/gcc/debian/tmp/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 instead of /usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 Having -l/«PKGBUILDDIR»/gcc/debian/tmp/usr/s390x-linux-gnu/lib in that list does not look too useful to me ... but dpkg-shlibdeps should either process the -l options in the given order or at least document the actual order being used in the manpage. So LD_LIBRARY_PATH=FIRST:SECOND:THIRD dpkg-shlibdeps -lfirst -lsecond -lthird ... will currently search these paths (and some more builtin paths probably): third second first FIRST SECOND THIRD Andreas
