Package: libavifile-0.7-dev
Version: 1:0.7.47.20070718-1.2
Severity: normal

both "avifile-config --libs" and "pkg-config --libs avifile" report:
'-laviplay -ldts -lm -lz'

since libavifile-0.7-dev does NOT dependend on libdts(-dev), this breaks
compiling of software that depends on libavifile and that uses
pkg-config (unless the user has installed
libdts-dev for other reasons)

the missing dependency is not a very big issue, as libaviplay.so really
does not (seem to) depend on libdts, so one can link a program just fine without
the offending "-ldts" line.

however, the bug prevents me from using pkg-config
(and my build-system is already quite complex, so i won't add an
exception for libavifile on debian)


possible solutions for this problem are:
- make libavifile-0.7-dev depend on libdts-dev (i would rather not add
  this additional dependency, as libdts seems to be not needed)
- remove the "-ldts" from the output of pkg-config and avifile-config
