Package: libgit2-dev Version: 0.23.1-1+b1 Severity: important libgit2 depends on libhttp-parser, and libgit2-dev depends on libhttp-parser-dev. However, the pkg-config information for libgit2 does not include -lhttp_parser among the needed libraries, hence trying to compile a program that depends on libgit2 using $(pkg-config --libs libgit2) to get the compile flags will fail due to undefined references to http_parser_init and http_parser_execute methods.
This should be trivial to fix, by moving -lhttp_parser from the Libs.private to the Libs field in the .pc file. -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libgit2-dev depends on: ii libcurl4-openssl-dev 7.47.0-1 ii libgit2-23 0.23.1-1+b1 ii libhttp-parser-dev 2.1-2 ii libssh2-1-dev 1.5.0-2+b1 ii libssl-dev 1.0.2f-2 ii zlib1g-dev [libz-dev] 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 libgit2-dev recommends no packages. libgit2-dev suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
