Package: check Version: 0.9.10-1 Severity: important I got the following error while test-compiling gdm 3.8:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.7/../../../x86_64-linux-gnu/libcheck_pic.a(check.o): In function `tcase_create': (.text+0x19c): undefined reference to `floor' A bit of digging revealed that check in debian only has a static library, but pkg-config --cflags --libs check doesn't provide the required library flags (adding --static does). As it's a packaging decision to only provide the static library, the .pc file should probably provide the same information with and without --static to keep this transparent to the application. -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.9-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages check depends on: ii dpkg 1.16.10 ii install-info 5.1.dfsg.1-3 check recommends no packages. check suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
