Hello Lars and thanks for this bug report. I can confirm this: libmnl- dev 1.0.4-2 installs
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmnl.a while libmnl-dev 1.0.4-3 does not. I tracked this down to this Debian packaging change (see the debian/libmnl-dev.install diff): https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-netfilter-team/pkg- libmnl/-/commit/3526970e4dfb5598a9023496211c908e9ab7c9dc Dropping the .a file looks like unintentional to me, at least by reading the commit message. Ideally this should be fixed in Debian, to make Debian benefit from the fix and keep the packages in sync, lowering the maintenance work from the Ubuntu side. Do you you think you can file a bug in Debian against the libmnl source package and report it back here? This would speed up things.
