Bug#763741: libguestfs: Incorrect build-dependencies (libsystemd-id128-0, libsystemd-journal0), fails binNMU

A debian package normally build-depends on the development package providing the development files (headers, pkg-config, (unversioned) shared object file, etc.) rather then simply on a package with only a particular versioned .so.X. In other words, build-dependencies should normally end with -dev (if it's a library and not a tool used during the build process).

The above -dev packages also specifies a dependency on their respective libfooX package as needed. Doing this correctly is what makes it possible to do binNMUs when there's a transition for a certain library (ie. it gets a new so version). Doing this incorrectly makes that impossible.

But in the case of libguestfs, on Debian we depend on specific SONAMEs (not for any real reason, just because Debian's packaging system forces us to do that). So if an SONAME changes it requires an upstream patch or a downstream patch that eventually has to go upstream. So I still think that Hilko's build dependencies are correct.

Hello Hilko Bengen. Thanks for fixing up the incorrect libsystemd build-dependencies in libguestfs. Unfortunately there are many more that are also wrong. Please fix up the rest as well. eg. libaugeas0, libcap2, libhivex0, libpcre3, libxml2, libyajl2, There may be more... Please check.

I'm not complete clear on what change is being made to Debian. However from the build log, the problem is that 'libsystemd.so.0' isn't making it into the appliance. This seems to be because the following upstream commit shoud be backported to the 1.26 branch (either in Debian or upstream): commit a36dde98899ea160a49c9af65a883383496cd331 Author: Hilko Bengen ben...@hilluzination.de Date: Fri Sep 19 18:55:50 2014 +0200 appliance: Add libsystemd0 (and systemd as an alternative for sysvinit) on Debian-based systems Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones Read my programming and virtualization blog: http://rwmj.wordpress.com virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines.

Source: libguestfs Version: 1:1.26.9-1 Severity: serious Justification: 7.7 Relationships between source and binary packages Dear Maintainer, During a round of binNMUs for the transition[1] to the unified libsystemd0 the binNMU fails to accomplish its goals for libguestfs. Somehow the old libraries still get linked although the pkg-config flags tells it to use libsystemd0. I spotted these build-dependencies which in themselves are wrong: libsystemd-id128-0, libsystemd-journal0 This might be the culprit for making the binNMU fail.
