Source: gmime
Version: 3.2.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
I've recently been adding superficial autopkgtests for -dev packages
in GNOME and GNOME-adjacent libraries. These tests check that the
-dev package is usable, and in particular often detect missing -dev
dependencies like #939222 in gcab (although gmime does not seem to have
that problem).
Please consider the attached patch.
Thanks,
smcv

Subject: [PATCH] d/tests/libgmime-3.0-dev: Add a superficial test for the -dev
package
Tests like this one check that the -dev package is usable, and in
particular often detect missing -dev dependencies like #939222 in gcab.
