Bug#801305: log4cplus: broken -dev package directory

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Hi Andrew, it happens :)



>I can't believe I did that.

I tried deeply to understand a possible rationale for that, and I tried also to
understand if the bug was really RC or not.

As usual feel free to downgrade the bug if you think it isn't breaking anything 
:)

cheers,

Bug#801305: log4cplus: broken -dev package directory

[Gianfranco Costamagna]

Source: log4cplus
Version: 1.1.2-3
Severity: serious
Justification: completely broken lib directory

Hi, seems that the current log4cplus unconditionally installs the library 
symlink in
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblog4cplus-1.1.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblog4cplus.a
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblog4cplus.la
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblog4cplus.so

for every architecture (including non x86_64*)


I guess this breaks the linker
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/log4cplus.git/tree/debian/liblog4cplus-dev.links

cheers,

Gianfranco

*facepalm*

I can't believe I did that.
