Hi,
dpkg-shlibdeps breaks with the following error message if the ELF
object has spaces on its name:
Use of uninitialized value $format in string eq at
/usr/share/perl5/Dpkg/Shlibs.pm line 118, <P> line 2.
dpkg-shlibdeps: error: couldn't find library libc.so.6 needed by
debian/foo/usr/bin/foo bar (ELF format: ''; RPATH: '').
Note: libraries are not searched in other binary packages that do not
have any shlibs or symbols file.
To help dpkg-shlibdeps find private libraries, you might need to set
LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
This is caused by the tight regex in Dpkg::Shlibs::Objdump::Object::_parse().
Attached patch relies on the greedy regex to properly support file
names with spaces and colons on their name.
Cheers,
