This shows up because the upstream build system links the binaries against libraries that they do not use. This could be a bug in the upstream build system or it could be a bug in another package that your package builds against. In this case I'm guessing it would probably be the latter. Try getting help on #debian-mentors on IRC to work out where the bug is. > ancient-libtool po/gettext-0.10.35-kde/ltconfig > > What does this mean and how to fix this? Please see the lintian-info output for this tag. Also available here: http://lintian.debian.org/tags/ancient-libtool.html In this case I'm guessing the upstream package has an embedded code copy of gettext, I'd suggest asking upstream to remove it and switch to the standard system gettext. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
