[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#1015955: liblemon-dev: pkg-config --libs response is wrong

Package: liblemon-dev
Version: 1.3.1+dfsg-4
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

Trying to use pkg-config with the Lemon library for a project of
mine, I noticed that the response using the --libs option
is "-lemon", which leads to build failure (of my project).  I
think the response should be "-llemon" instead (i.e. an "l"
character is missing).

I browsed the dfsg-5 version and found that the problem most
likely still exists in the "lemon/lemon.pc.in" source file.

I do not consider it a major problem, since one can always apply
a fix in their build procedure, but I thought you might want to
make a correction for a future version.

Thank you for your maintenance efforts!

yorgath
