Hi, Per Those libs seem to come from Requires: glib-2.0 gmodule-no-export-2.0 entry in upstream enchant.pc.in > It appears that enchant can be used without explicitly depending on > the extra libraries. Please consider moving them to Libs.private in > enchant.pc. I guess you mean that lyx can use enchant without explicitly depending on above libraries, enchant itself seems to heavily rely on glib-2.0. I am not familiar with pkg-config and friends. Should something like Requires.private help here? Or is better Libs.private as you suggest? PS: I am not enchant maintainer, just have it under my radar because I uploaded last QA. enchant itself is orphaned.
