Package: liblua5.1-0-dev Version: all Pkgconfig files are meant to be common interfaces that all distros share. Thus it is important that they are only modified upstream unless we are really talking about trivial fixes like libsuffix support here.
If packagers don't follow this policy then they break this common interface. This is not the first time happening because debian packagers modify/rename/add pkgconfig files without caring about other distros (e.g. libtbb-dev if I am not mistaken). Developers running debian will code their build system believing that "pkg-config --libs lua5.1" will be valid, but it's not, cause upstream ships "lua.pc", not "lua5.1.pc". Packagers from other distros will have to fix this once they want to include the software from this developer. Stop changing pkgconfig files randomly unless it's absolutely necessary. Fix your lua packages in another way or send patches upstream. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
