[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#889506: last-align: Please make build compatible with -Wl, --as-needed

[Steve Langasek]

Package: last-align
Version: 885-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
User: ubuntu-devel at lists.ubuntu.com
Usertags: origin-ubuntu bionic ubuntu-patch

Dear maintainers,

The latest version of last-align has failed to build in Ubuntu, because it
depends on libpthread but debian/rules passes -lpthread in a way that is
incompatible with -Wl,--as-needed, which is a default linker flag in Ubuntu.

The attach patch, which is more strictly correct, fixes the build failure in
Ubuntu.  Please consider applying it in Debian.
