Patch with the deletion of dependency_libs content of libexiv2.la

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: exiv2
  
  Hi,
  
  When build gnome-commander, that b-d on libexiv2-dev, I got the following 
error:
  ...
  libtool: link: cannot find the library `/usr/lib/libexpat.la' or unhandled 
argument `/usr/lib/libexpat.la'
  
  This is because libexiv2.la still references /usr/lib/libexpat.la
  instead of /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu (or the one corresponding to the
  arch) after libexpat got 'multi-arched'.
  
  A simple rebuild of exiv2 would be enough to fix the issue, but a patch
  to build system to get rid of the content of dependency_libs would be
- cleaner.
+ cleaner (as spoken with Steve Langasek by irc).
  
  thanks,
  fabrice

+ I've checked that the la file still works by rebuilding locally gnome-
+ commander with the patched version of libexiv2-dev.
