Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.16.10
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dpkg-shlibdeps
now the same "couldn't find library" message could be warning or error,
e.g.
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: couldn't find library libmat.so needed by
debian/matlab-psychtoolbox-3-nonfree/usr/lib/matlab/site/psychtoolbox-3/WaitSecs.mexa64
(ELF format: 'elf64-x86-64'; RPATH: '')
dpkg-shlibdeps: error: couldn't find library libeyelink_core-1.9.so.58 needed
by
debian/matlab-psychtoolbox-3-nonfree/usr/lib/matlab/site/psychtoolbox-3/Eyelink.mexa64
(ELF format: 'elf64-x86-64'; RPATH: '')
N.B. this is for some non-free package which relies on users having a shared
library provided manually
and in case of the error the whole run of dpkg-shlibdeps fails without
generating substvars. The situation persists even if I use documented:
--ignore-missing-info
Do not fail if dependency information can't be found for a shared
library. Usage of this option
is discouraged, all libraries should provide dependency information
(either with shlibs files,
or with symbols files) even if they are not yet used by other
packages.
which from the description sounds precisely what I need, but in the code is not
influencing decision to exit with error upon $error_count.
