Source: libcap-ng
Version: 0.7.4-2
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


   * What led up to the situation?

I tried 'import capng' from Python, failed to import.
Traced the problem down  to libcap-ng's build has an error.
See

https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=libcap-
ng&arch=i386&ver=0.7.4-2&stamp=1408698790

and search for 'error:'. You'll see

libtool: relink: gcc -shared  -fPIC -DPIC  .libs/_capng_la-capng_wrap.o
-lpython2.7 -L/«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/tmp-python-cap-ng/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
-L/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu -lcap-ng  -O2 -Wl,-z -Wl,relro   -Wl,-soname
-Wl,_capng.so -o .libs/_capng.so
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcap-ng

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
     ineffective)?

Rebuilt package on my machine. This works because the .so is already installed
so the -lcap-ng can find it.

   * What was the outcome of this action?

I was able to install my locally built .deb with gdebi and it had the python
bindings in
