[Debian-ha-maintainers] Bug#622128: pacemaker-mgmt: Stop shipping libtool la files or prune dependency libs

[Andreas Metzler]

Package: pacemaker-mgmt
Version: 2.0.0+hg1141-2
Severity: normal
User: codehelp at debian.org
Usertags: la-file-removal

Hello,

the binary packages contain multiple libtool la files with nonempty
dependency_libs:

* pacemaker-mgmt-dev (/usr/lib/*.la)
* pacemaker-mgmt-client ships /usr/lib/heartbeat-gui/_pymgmt.la

Please stop shipping the libtool la-files or at least empty the dependency
libs line. /usr/lib/*.la is pretty clear candidate for removal. I do
not know about /usr/lib/heartbeat-gui/_pymgmt.la - Is this needed
internally or installed accidentally?
debian/pacemaker-mgmt-client.install is strange, it installs both the
complete usr/lib*/heartbeat-gui directories and later selectivily
specifies files.
