[xml/sgml-pkgs] Bug#521070: libxslt1-dev should declare dependency on zlib1g-dev

Package: libxslt1-dev
Version: 1.1.24-2

Forwarding from https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4208 .

STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM:
1) apt-get install libxslt1-dev
2) pkg-config --libs libxslt

EXPECTED OUTCOME:
Libaries listed in pkg-config output should have been automatically installed
by installing libxslt1-dev

ACTUAL OUTCOME:
$ pkg-config --libs libxslt
-lxslt -lz -lm -lxml2

libxslt1-dev correctly depends on libxslt1.1, libxml2-dev but does not
specify a dependency on zlib1g-dev so -lz in pkg-config output causes a
link error.

REPRODUCIBILITY:
always

OTHER COMMENTS:
Either the pkg-config output should not include -lz or zlib1g-dev should be a
dependency of libxslt1-dev
