It definitely should, but it's not there because there's a typo in debian/rules. I'm raising the severity as libg20-perl is apparently unusable. Proposed patch attached. -- Niko Tyni nt...@debian.org

The typo in $(CURDIR) made libg2 linkage get skipped. The LD_RUN_PATH trick is to avoid an RPATH setting in the resulting DSO. --- debian/rules | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/debian/rules b/debian/rules index f230c61..c202f63 100755 --- a/debian/rules +++ b/debian/rules @@ -34,8 +34,8 @@ override_dh_auto_build: # clean up and build the shared lib -rm -f src/*.o src/*/*.o $(MAKE) PICFLAG="-fPIC" RVERSION=$(rversion) MVERSION=$(major) DEBCFLAGS="$(CFLAGS)" LDFLAGS="$(LDFLAGS)" shared - (cd ./g2_perl && perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor LIBS="-L$(CURIDR)/g2_perl/.. -lg2") - $(MAKE) -C ./g2_perl + (cd ./g2_perl && perl Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=vendor LIBS="-L$(CURDIR) -lg2") + $(MAKE) -C ./g2_perl LD_RUN_PATH="" override_dh_auto_install: $(MAKE) RVERSION=$(rversion) MVERSION=$(major) install prefix=$(CURDIR)/debian/libg2-dev -- 1.8.5
