Package: mendexk Version: 2.6e-3 Severity: serious According to the build log, mendexk links statically against libkpathsea:
| # Add here commands to compile the package. | /usr/bin/make "PROGLINK=\$(CC) \$(OBJS) -o \$(PROGRAM) \ | /usr/lib/libkpathsea.a" | make[1]: Entering directory `/build/buildd/mendexk-2.6e' | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o main.o main.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o convert.o convert.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o sort.o sort.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o fread.o fread.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o fwrite.o fwrite.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o styfile.o styfile.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o pageread.o pageread.c | cc -O -DKPATHSEA -DKPATHSEA3 -DEUC -c -o kp.o kp.c | kp.c: In function 'KP_find_file': | kp.c:115: warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'free' | cc main.o convert.o sort.o fread.o fwrite.o styfile.o pageread.o kp.o -o mendex /usr/lib/libkpathsea.a | make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/buildd/mendexk-2.6e' | touch build-stamp I can't seem to find a rationale for this in the changelog. I hence presume that this is unnecessary and in fact a policy violation. The package does not adopt a dependency on libkpathsea5 (or libkpathsea6, for that matter) despite build-depending on it. Please change that to dynamic linkage for all the goodness of Debian. Kind regards Philipp Kern -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
