Package: oprofile
Version: 0.9.3-1
Severity: important

After I upgraded oprofile package to version0.9.3-1, opreport failed because it 
depends on 
libbfd-2.18:

 ldd /usr/bin/opreport
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libpopt.so.0 => /lib/libpopt.so.0 (0xb7f8b000)
        libbfd-2.18.so => /usr/lib/libbfd-2.18.so (0xb7ec3000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0xb7ebf000)
        libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 (0xb7dd3000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0xb7dad000)
        libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb7da2000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7c5a000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fab000)

Upgrading binutils-dev to version 2.18 fixed it, but according to the 
binutils-dev package 
description:  "Note that building Debian packages which depend on the shared 
libbfd is Not 
Allowed." 

If I understood that correctly, libbfd should be linked statically. Or if not, 
the oprofile 
package should be marked to depend on binutils-dev version 2.18.
