Package: adequate Version: 0.12.1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
The bug log of #780855 suggests it is possible to detect missing dependencies for -dev packages via .pc files. The exact ivocation used was: """ $ pkg-config --exists --print-errors libteam Package libnl-3.0 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libnl-3.0.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'libnl-3.0', required by 'libteam', not found """ Please consider adding a check for this based on the pkg-config invocation. If used from piuparts (e.g. on piuparts.debian.net), it should be fairly reliable - on user systems, it may have false-negatives.
