reassign 297257 libperl5.8 retitle 297257 libperl5.8: Does not install libperl.so.5.8 on amd64 thanks
Hi Perl people, this caused auctex to FTBFS on amd64. It's probably more important for other packages that use eperl, or otherwise libperl (auctex is architecture: all). From the original bug report: ,---- | dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture is amd64 | debian/rules clean | eperl -P -o debian/rules debian/rules.in | eperl: error while loading shared libraries: libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory | make: *** [debian/rules] Error 127 | `---- Denis Barbier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> >> Denis, > ? >> I guess eperl needs this additional Depends? > > There is already a Depends, but it seems that libperl5.8 is broken > on ia64, it does not shup libperl.so.5.8. > Feel free to reassign this bugreport to libperl5.8, or I'll do it > later today when coming back home after more investigations. > Thanks. I hope you mean amd64, not ia64, too, because this would mean the bug is RC for sarge. And it should *really* be fixed even if amd64 is not an official sarge arch.
