Package: libglib-object-introspection-perl Version: 0.042-1 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, Utility perli11ndoc requires the *.gir files for introspected libraries to be installed to view documentation. I can't find anywhere in the documentation for this package that notes that the .gir files can be installed with the -dev packages for base libraries, i.e. libgtk-3-dev must be installed to get the gir file and documentation for Gtk-3.0 (libgtk3-perl) in perl. To make this simpler for new users who do not otherwise need the -dev package installed but do want documentation in perl, it seems that the package documentation should make a note of this requirement. -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-6-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages libglib-object-introspection-perl depends on: ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u1 ii libextutils-depends-perl 0.405-1 ii libextutils-pkgconfig-perl 1.15-1 ii libffi6 3.2.1-6 ii libgirepository-1.0-1 1.50.0-1+b1 ii libglib-perl 3:1.324-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.50.3-2 ii perl 5.24.1-3+deb9u2 ii perl-base [perlapi-5.24.1] 5.24.1-3+deb9u2 libglib-object-introspection-perl recommends no packages. libglib-object-introspection-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
