[Pkg-fglrx-devel] Bug#598118: fglrx-glx: Missing shlibs control file

[Piotr Szydełko]

Package: fglrx-glx
Version: 1:10-7-1
Severity: normal

fglrx-glx 10-7-1 package doesn't include shlibs control file. It doesn't
change
anything for fglrx itself but breaks building of xserver-xorg-core on system
where fglrx-glx is installed.

This is the error reported during package build

# LC_ALL=C apt-build install --reinstall xserver-xorg-core
 [...]
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: diversions involved - output may be incorrect

The same output can be reproduced easier:
$ LC_ALL=C dpkg-shlibdeps /usr/bin/glxinfo


Package includes lintian overrides so this error is not reported by lintian.
That's what lintian reports with disabled overrides:

$ lintian -ioT no-shlibs-control-file /var/cache/apt/archives/fglrx-
glx_1%3a10-7-1_i386.deb
E: fglrx-glx: no-shlibs-control-file usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2
N:
N:    Although the package includes a shared library, the package does not
N:    have a shlibs control file. If this is intentional, please override
this
N:    error.
N:
N:    Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 8.6 (Dependencies between the
N:    library and other packages - the shlibs system) for details.
N:
N:    Severity: serious, Certainty: possible

To fix the issue and be able to build xserver-xorg-core (with
107_fedora_dont_backfill_bg_none.patch which fixes annoying lag on window
resize) I have executed:
# echo "libGL 1 fglrx-glx" > /var/lib/dpkg/info/fglrx-glx.shlibs
