Public bug reported: There are issues with two files:
1. The file polyml.pc is not provided by any Poly/ML package. Without this, pkg-config cannot be used to create the arguments for linking against libpolyml: the command `pkg-config --libs polyml` fails instead of producing ld flags. This issue was identified by a user in the following report: https://github.com/giraffelibrary/giraffe/issues/2#issuecomment-940525255 (second half, relating to Poly/ML). 2. The file polyc is provided in the package polyml but the utility cannot work without one of the files libpolyml.so or libpolyml.a provided in libpolyml-dev. libpolyml-dev is not a required by polyml so polyc should be provided by libpolyml-dev. Otherwise, package installations appear broken, as reported by a user in the following report: https://github.com/polyml/polyml/issues/161 Note that the current package version, 5.7.1, was released nearly 4 years ago at the time of reporting this bug: https://github.com/polyml/polyml/releases/tag/v5.7.1 If this version is updated, it should be noted that the latest version, 5.8.2, no longer depends on libffi. (Version 5.8.1 was the last version to depend on libffi.) ** Affects: polyml (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1947789 Title: libpolyml-dev is missing files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/polyml/+bug/1947789/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
