Package: libvarnish-dev Version: 2.1.2-1 Severity: normal Running "pkg-config --libs varnishapi" returns:
$ pkg-config --libs varnishapi -lvarnishapi In order to link successfully with "libvarnishapi", it should return something like: $ pkg-config --libs varnishapi -lvarnishapi -lvarnish -lpcre When linking against "libvarnishapi", several symbols are not resolved automatically, as described in bug #558967. One of those symbols is "VRE_exec": $ objdump -T /usr/lib/libvarnishapi.so.1.0.0 | grep VRE_exec 0000000000000000 D *UND* 0000000000000000 VRE_exec This symbol is available from "libvarnish": $ objdump -T /usr/lib/libvarnish.so.1.0.0 | grep VRE_exec 0000000000009c90 g DF .text 0000000000000135 Base VRE_exec Since "libvarnishapi" itself is not linked against "libvarnish", the linker cannot resolve this dependency automatically. Software that relies on pkg-config to provide the correct LD-flags for linking against "libvarnishapi" will thus fail to use the library or fail to build.
