Public bug reported: libedit build in Wily proposed is failing due to LIBBSD_LIBS being added to LDFLAGS instead of LIBS.
As stated in https://wiki.debian.org/ToolChain/DSOLinking#Only_link_with_needed_libraries and http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.60/html_node /Preset-Output-Variables.html#index-LDFLAGS-93 libraries must be added to LIBS instead of LDFLAGS.
