Package: linda Version: 0.3.10 Severity: normal Hello,
Running linda over a test .deb compiled from the attached tar.gz file produces (among others) the following errors: E: foo; Object /usr/lib/foo/foo.o is not directly linked against libc. The binary object shown above is not directly linked against the required library libc.so.6. W: foo; Shared binary object /usr/lib/foo/foo.o has no dependancy information. The binary object listed above is a shared object, but does not report that it depends on any other shared libraries. The object file foo.o is generated with "gcc -Wall -c -g -O2 test.c". The problem is that object files should not, and in fact cannot, be linked against external libraries, so these linda errors make no sense.
