When dropping the *.la files you might break rdeps of libjack dev packages (if *.la files of libs in other packages reference jack's *.la files, they will break builds against these libs), it's best to check all rdeps of libjack-dev packages (recursively :-/) for la files referencing jack's, or to simply strip jack's la file. See e.g. /usr/share/gnome-pkg-tools/1/rules/clean-la.mk for a way to do this with CDBS (in gnome-pkg-tools). It's basically: sed -i "/dependency_libs/ s/'.*'/''/" debian/.../usr/lib/*.la -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
