Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.1
Severity: important
Hi,
I am building a package which ships a .a/.so/.la and get this phenomenal
lintian error
E: gwaei: non-empty-dependency_libs-in-la-file usr/lib/libwaei.la
So I try to understand what is going on, but the explanations there
are as useful as ... hmmmm... better not say it:
- N: The in itself .la file may be useful, if the library is loaded
N: dynamically via libltdl.
This is not English, "The in itself ..." ????
- N: Refer to http://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/LAFileRemoval,
N: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/05/msg01003.html, and
N: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2011/05/msg01146.html for details.
First link does not exist
Second link does not exist
Third link is just a warning that bla bla will break multi arch
Aehmmm yes, I don't know anything more now!
Thanks
Norbert
