[Pkg-directfb-devel] Bug#827602: libdirectfb-dev depends on libpng but fails to install it when installing libdirectfb-dev

[Olliver Schinagl]

Package: libdirectfb-dev
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

Setting up a debootstrap with libsdl-dev via --include, which pulls in
libdirectfb-dev. libdirectfb-dev in turn wants libpng-dev which fails. Adding
libpng12-dev, not libpng-dev, to the list of includes makes the build work fine
after that. Which is supprising concidering libpng-dev is a virtual for
libpng12-dev.

Errors were encountered while processing:
 libdirectfb-dev
 libglib2.0-dev
 libfreetype6-dev
 libsdl1.2-dev
 libslang2-dev:amd64
 libpulse-dev:amd64
 libcaca-dev
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of libdirectfb-dev:
 libdirectfb-dev depends on libpng-dev; however:
  Package libpng-dev is not installed.

dpkg: error processing package libdirectfb-dev (--configure):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured

debootstrap --include=libsdl1.2-dev --components=main,contrib,non-free
--variant=minbase jessie /tmp/test/ http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/
