Liquidsoap is a scripting language for multimedia. It depends
on pervasive libraries to achieve much of the built-in
functions that user scripts can call. Currently these are installed in
the incorrect location, which cannot be found by liquidsoap (#991332).
The link is for the pervious version of the package and was accidentally
not updated when the latest upstream version was released. The new
changes attached correct the link and add autopkg tests to prevent a
regretion in future.
If this is not fixed user scripts that use any built-in functions would
be broken. This is almost all scripts, as even the get-started tutorial
script in the liquidsoap documentation uses 'mksafe' from those
functions [1]. There is a workaround that users can perform, but is not
very evident from the error message given by liquidsoap:
# mv /usr/share/liquidsoap/1.4.2 /usr/share/liquidsoap/1.4.3
Liquidsoap is a leaf package and this is a trvial change of an obvious
mistake.
