[Pkg-pascal-devel] Bug#820708: Bug#820708: Bug#820708: Bug#820708: castle-game-engine: hardcoded libpng12 dependency

> Packages build with CGE that NEED png  
support are soon broken in testing (the moment libpng12 is removed)  
without a way to be fixed. And fixing this bug is not enough, those  
packages need to be rebuild as well.

  

Ah, indeed, you will need to recompile and release new view3dscene binary
version. In general, every package depending on CGE needs to be recompiled in
such cases (for now, it's only view3dscene?). Even though the source code
changed only in CGE.

I see your point.  

That's how static linking works, this reasoning applies to every change in
FreePascal standard library or CGE or any other library that is traditionally
"statically compiled" in Debian. It seems like the "Build-Using" you mention
is the way to declare this.
