Hi, an old bug for the Hurd port is back again.
dpkg-shlibdeps uses ldd again to determine the library paths (because of libc5 compatibility), but this breaks on the Hurd, because ldd finds the libs in /lib, but dpkg has registered them under /usr/lib. Recall that /usr is just a symlink to . on the Hurd. This makes dpkg-shlibdeps fail for all libraries in /usr/lib. libc5 compatibility doesn't matter to us. Can we disable the relevant code in dpkg-shlibdeps, and just rely on objdump? This worked fine on the Hurd. The other hack would be to pass both, the full path and the path where /usr is stripped of to dpkg -S. This does work, too (I used this in older versions of dpkg, before objdump). I can provide a patch for this. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
