[Pkg-games-ubuntu] [Bug 1564482] [NEW] missing symbols on libphysfs.a file

[Matheus]

Public bug reported:

trying to compile a program that depends on libphysfs.a I get errors
like "filestream.cpp:(.text+0x712): referência indefinida para
`PHYSFS_read'" for all the physfs methods.

executing "nm /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libphysfs.a" returns "
physfs.o:
nm: physfs.o: nenhum símbolo

physfs_byteorder.o:
nm: physfs_byteorder.o: nenhum símbolo

physfs_unicode.o:
nm: physfs_unicode.o: nenhum símbolo
"
and so on.

In another machine I tried downloading the sources for libphysfs.a, then
built it and replaced the defective lib. That solved the problem.
