Hi Fabián,

I just tried to reproduce your issue by re-building gstreamer0.10 in a
clean wheezy build environment. The build didn't fail.

These build log lines are not part of a build of gstreamer0.10. So this
is hardly an issue with the libgstreamer0.10-dev package. What package
in which version are you trying to build in a Debian 'wheezy' environment?

It is not an error to ship no libtool linker archives (so called .la
files) in a -dev package. As far as I understand Debian Policy 10.2 it
is even discouraged to ship them, unless you have a good reason to do so.

What exactly are you complaining about? Please provide an explicit
problem description and exact instructions on how to reproduce the issue.

Cheers,
Micha
