Package: audit Version: 1:2.2.2-1ubuntu2 Severity: minor Tags: patch User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu raring ubuntu-patch
Dear Maintainer, The upstream audit source embeds its own version of libev and the project's build system uses the embedded version rather than using an externally available libev. Therefore, a Build-Dependency on libev-dev is unnecessary. I have not had a chance to investigate why audit embeds its own libev or if audit can build against the system's libev. In Ubuntu, the attached patch was applied to achieve the following: * Remove libev-dev Build-Dependency - debian/control: The upstream audit sources embed and build against their own version of libev. This is not desirable, but there's no reason to list libev-dev as a build dependency at this time. Thanks for considering the patch. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers quantal-updates APT policy: (500, 'quantal-updates'), (500, 'quantal-security'), (500, 'quantal') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.5.0-23-generic (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
