The problem seems to be that the .la files are not correctly installed into the -dev package during package build. This can be easily fixed by applying the attached patch to the unpacked gdk-pixbuf-2.22.0 source tree:
apt-get source libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 cd gdk-pixbuf-2.22.0/ patch -p1 < ../gdkpixbuff.diff debuild -b -uc -us You will then end up with a proper .deb package (e.g. libgdk- pixbuf2.0-dev_2.22.0-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb) which contains the correct files and can be installed as normal. ** Patch added: "Patch to include *.la files in the -dev package." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdk-pixbuf/+bug/665768/+attachment/1712320/+files/gdkpixbuf.diff ** Changed in: gdk-pixbuf (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la missing from packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665768 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
