Subject: libupsclient1 ends up in /lib, not /usr/lib

Date: Sun, 9 Nov 2008 07:50:31 -0500

Subject: libupsclient1 ends up in /lib, not /usr/lib
Package: libupsclient1
Severity: serious

libupsclient1 installs its shared libraries into /lib, not /usr/lib

root@utumno:/# dpkg -L libupsclient1
/lib/libupsclient.so.1.0.0

It appears all thats needed to fix is a change in the rules on 131-132
to change debian/lib to debian/usr/lib.

retitle "libupsclient-dev points to /usr/lib not /lib"
thankyou

Sorry, I overlooked that the libraries in /lib are intentional. The
problem is now that the files in -dev point to /usr/lib, vs /lib
making anything that builds against libupsclient-dev crash and burn.

a -9 is ready for some time for fixing this, but I was looking into
adding more into it before uploading it...
I'll wait a bit more since it's not harmful. or do you have an urgent need?
btw, it doesn't affect lenny, but only sid.

thanks for the report,
Arnaud

Hi Arnaud,

Unfortunately, this fix is broken. In debian/rules you do:

  mv $(CURDIR)/debian/nut/usr/lib/*.so $(CURDIR)/debian/libupsclient1-dev/lib

However, $(CURDIR)/debian/libupsclient1-dev/lib does not exist at that
point, so you create /lib as a symlink to libupsclient.so.1.0.0.

Also, libupsclient.la (currently found in /usr/lib) points to /usr/lib
as well (libdir='/usr/lib'). Because of that, libtool is looking for
/usr/lib/libupsclient.so. Since the .la file references libupsclient.a
as well, I guess, changing libdir to '/lib' won't do it, because libtool
then won't be able to find the static lib any longer. I suppose, the
only way to solve that is to move the .a and .la to /lib as well.

Cheers,
Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

thanks for poping this up.

Morten Kjeldgaard, from Ubuntu, already pointed it and provided an
excellent package update, using debhelper files:
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nut/+bug/299489

as told, I'll do my best to integrate these update and upload 2.2.2-10.
though my top 1 priority is currently to have 2.4.0 released for Christmas...

thanks for your support and help,
Arnaud
