Bug#841168: libqhull-dev: Has /usr/include/libqhull_r headers, but no libqhull_r.so

[Ian Thomas]

Package: libqhull-dev
Version: 2015.2-1
Severity: normal
Tags: newcomer

There are two versions of qhull, the original non-reentrant version (libqhull)
and the newer reeentrant version (libqhull_r).  libqhull-dev 2015.2-1 has
include files for both, but only libraries for the non reentrant version.
Hence users cannot link against the reentrant version.

Building the debian package from source indicates that libqhull_r.so is built,
but it is not making its way into libqhull7_2015.2-1_amd64.deb or libqhull-
dev_2015.2-1_amd64.deb
