Can you please test > this, pass it to upstream, and prepare a new package? you're late, 0.4 is in etch since 03/01/2006 and already includes the neccessary modifications (see, your patch is against 0.3). It'll just need to be rebuilt when libsysfs2 will be available. BTW: will you immediately ask for libsysfs1 removal? > I will upload sysfsutils 2.0 to unstable in about two weeks, unless > major problems arise. I have one for example :) Well it's not necessary related to libsysfs in particular but (to make the story short): cpufrequtils is developed on a gentoo box that ships a modified libtool that will try to link statically if the shared library is in /lib and the static library (-dev files) is in /usr/lib. Please see #344662. You'll have the same problem on ubuntu's amd64. The gentoo developer says that libtool doesn't support linking dynamically with such a layout (some stuff in /lib some in /usr/lib)... Simply having links from /usr/lib/libsysfs.so{,.2} to /lib will link correctly. Interestingly enough I just noticed that on x86 libcpufreq dynamically links against libsysfs1 but statically links against libsyfs2 (using experimental packages)!! Doh! Will ask for help soon... -- mattia :wq!
