Package: libcgal-dev
Version: 5.0.2-3
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

According to 8.5 in Debian Policy, this development package should depend on 
the runtime package, as was the case e.g. in version 4.13-1. Else, packages 
depending on libcgal-dev cannot build. This is the case for rheolef, for 
instance.
In current version, dependency holds only for architectures x32 and powerpcspe.

Moreover, it would be suitable (8.4 in Debian Policy) that the development 
package includes a symlink for the shared library libCGAL without a version 
number. This symlink is needed by ld when compiling binaries using the library.

Thanks for reading,

Cheers,
Pierre
