Package: libbrotli-dev Version: 1.0.7-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
thanks for adding the static libraries in this version. But gcc linker won't find those file names automatically. The linker expects the library names having just a .a extension (instead of .so). That would be /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbrotlicommon.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbrotlidec.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbrotlienc.a instead of (currently) /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbrotlicommon-static.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbrotlidec-static.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libbrotlienc-static.a Regards, Tim -- System Information: Debian Release: bullseye/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 5.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) (ignored: LC_ALL set to en_US.UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages libbrotli-dev depends on: ii libbrotli1 1.0.7-4 libbrotli-dev recommends no packages. libbrotli-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
