Package: guile-gnutls
Version: 2.8.4-1
Severity: serious

Usertags: postinst-must-call-ldconfig

Refer to Debian Policy Manual section 8.1.1 (ldconfig) for details. 

,----[ 8.1.1 ldconfig ]
| Any package installing shared libraries in one of the default library
| directories of the dynamic linker (which are currently /usr/lib and /lib) or a
| directory that is listed in /etc/ld.so.conf[47] must use ldconfig to update the
| shared library system.
| 
| The package maintainer scripts must only call ldconfig under these circumstances:
| 
|  * When the postinst script is run with a first argument of configure, the
|    script must call ldconfig, and may optionally invoke ldconfig at other times.
|  * When the postrm script is run with a first argument of remove, the script
|    should call ldconfig.
