Package: libxml2-dev
Version: 2.6.26.dfsg-1
Severity: minor

Hi,

There are spurious dependencies in libxml-2.0.pc:

Libs: -L${libdir} -lxml2 -lz -lm

-lz -lm is _not_ needed in Libs (since the -lxml2 interface
doesn't depend on -lz -lm interface) and just brings a unneeded
dependencies. It should rather be put in Libs.private:

Libs: -L${libdir} -lxml2
Libs.private: -lz -lm

(so that static compiling still works).

Samuel
