[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#842364: mocassin: hardcoded library build dependencies

[Pino Toscano]

Source: mocassin
Version: 2.02.72-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hi,

mocassin hardcodes few library as build dependencies: this is problematic
since their SONAMEs could be different (like in the case of libc, whose
SONAME is not always libc.so.6) or bumped in the future.

Because of this, I propose the following changes:
- turn libgcc1 into gcc, with the proper version (and epoch)
- turn libc6 into libc-bin, which does the same effect (i.e. require
  glibc >= 2.14); note that this could be dropped altogether, since
  Debian stable has glibc 2.19.

(Side question: is there any reason at all to require specific versions
of glibc and gcc? If not, dropping the version constraints may be a
good idea.)

Thanks,

Pino
