[Evolution] Bug#358914: libedataserverui1.2-dev: Should depend on gtk+, but debian/control and pkg-config don't indicate that

[Andrew Moise]

Package: libedataserverui1.2-dev
Version: 1.4.2.1-1.1
Severity: normal

  If you try to compile the attached program, in a way that seems
sensible to me, it fails:

[moise at mole /tmp]$ gcc `pkg-config --cflags --libs libedataserverui-1.2` test.c
In file included from test.c:1:
/usr/include/evolution-data-server-1.4/libedataserverui/e-passwords.h:27:27: error: gtk/gtkwindow.h: No such file or directory
In file included from test.c:1:
/usr/include/evolution-data-server-1.4/libedataserverui/e-passwords.h:68: error: syntax error before ‘GtkWindow’
[moise at mole /tmp]$

  That's because pkg-config doesn't include the gtk+-2.0 arguments in
its output for libedataserverui-1.2.  It's even possible to install
libedataserverui1.2-dev without libgtk2.0-dev, in which case there's no
hope of compiling programs including e-passwords.h.
  AFAICS, this should be fixed by either updating debian/control and
libedataserverui-1.2.pc, or by removing this dependency from
e-passwords.h (and possibly more places).
