Hi Chris,
As I was working on packaging the new mongo-c-driver upstream, I
encountered the same problem, though with different libraries.
Here is the line from the pkg-config file:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lbson-static-1.0 -lpthread -lgcc -lgcc_s -lc -lgcc
-lgcc_s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/librt.so
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so
The complaints from lintian:
W: libbson-dev: pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libbson-static-1.0.pc -lpthread (line 9)
W: libbson-dev: pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libbson-static-1.0.pc -lgcc (line 9)
W: libbson-dev: pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libbson-static-1.0.pc -lgcc_s (line 9)
W: libbson-dev: pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libbson-static-1.0.pc -lc (line 9)
W: libbson-dev: pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libbson-static-1.0.pc -lgcc (line 9)
W: libbson-dev: pkg-config-references-unknown-shared-library
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libbson-static-1.0.pc -lgcc_s (line 9)
It looks like perhaps libraries files shipped in libgcc1 also need to be
added to the whitelist.
Regards,
