Package: libuim-dev
Version: 1:1.4.1-3
Severity: normal

It seems that starting from 1.4.0, uim has a new dependency on
libgcroots.  This also means that packages building against libuim-dev
need to also have libgcroots-dev now, because the /usr/lib/libuim.la has
the following line:
    dependency_libs=' /usr/lib/libgcroots.la -ldl'

But since the package that use uim doesn't use libgcroots directly
(i.e., doesn't include any headers from libgcroots directly), I think it
makes more sense to have libuim-dev have a dependency on libgcroots-dev,
instead of having all packages that use uim adding a new build
dependency.

On a related note, I see that libuim-dev depends on libm17n-dev
currently.  I remember reporting a similar bug like this asking this
dependency to be added.  As it seems there is no mention of libm17n
anymore, maybe this dependency can be dropped?

Thanks,
