I think, gmsh does not link with those libraries, they are just in deps, what should be fixed. If we believe dpkg-shlibdeps, it says in buildlogs the following [1]: ======== dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/gmsh/usr/bin/gmsh was not linked against libcholmod.so.1.7.1 (it uses none of the library's symbols) .... dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/gmsh/usr/bin/gmsh was not linked against libumfpack.so.5.4.0 (it uses none of the library's symbols) ======== So, if GMSH does not link with libraries, can we close the bug?
