Package: libgrib2c-dev
Version: 1.2.2-2+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I note that the description for package libgrib2c-dev states that the
package contains the static libraries and headers needed to build
applications against libgrib2. However, the package does not actually
appear to contain the static library: see "dpkg -L " output below. 

I know that static libraries are a bit old-fashioned. But one of the
reasons for installing libgrib2c-dev is to build the wgrib2 utility.
(See http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/wesley/wgrib2 )
And the configure scripts for that utility expect static versions of
all the libraries which it uses.

I hope this report is useful

Best wishes 

Hugh Pumphrey
