Hi Gianfranco, Apologies for the duplicate message, but I forgot to Cc the bug and debian-science.

LT_SYS_SYMBOL_USCORE is defined in m4/ltdl.m4, which needs libltdl-dev to do so, so I added it to Build-Depends. I never actually installed libltdl-dev myself; it was pulled in by libtool as a recommended package, but it seems pbuilder/debootstrap only pulls in dependencies, which is how I managed to miss this dependency. > BTW you need to add libffi-dev to build-dependencies and enable it in > configure script. Done (upstream’s configure.ac forces libffi to be configured and is apparently needed, even in this case, so don’t be alarmed by that being mentioned in the logs!) I have re-uploaded 5.5.2-1 to mentors. I have also forked debian-science/packages/polyml.git to http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/users/jrtc27-guest/polyml.git/ and pushed all my changes there. Thanks, James Clarke
