If there should not be a symlink to that file, then the fact that this package cannot be used to develop against turbojpeg should be documented somewhere. At a minimum it should be in the debian/changelog. I'd prefer that it is mentioned in debian/control.
I don't know what proprietary means for BSD-style licensed software. http://svn.code.sf.net/p/libjpeg-turbo/code/trunk/README-turbo.txt states the license clearly. To anyone else who would like to work around this bug, run this command: sudo ln -s libturbojpeg.so.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libturbojpeg.so Now you will be able to link against turbojpeg with standard build tools which expect -lturbojpeg to work as a flag to ld. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1419267 Title: libjpegturbo.so missing from -dev package To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1419267/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
