Package: gtk2-engines
Version: 1:2.16.1-2
Severity: serious
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-b...@lists.debian.org

Hello,

gtk2-engines-udeb exhibits two problems on hppa, though the second of
them may be applicable to other arches as well.

In the first place, gtk2-engines-udeb 2.14.3-2 and 2.16.1-2 depend on
libdirectfb-1.0-0-udeb, but only on hppa. This dependency is,
additionally, spurious: the files shipped in gtk2-engines-udeb are
linked against libdirectfb-1.0, but do not use any of its symbols as far
as I can see. The fact that this linkage is only present on hppa is
probably symptomatic that something is going wrong there.

This dependency on directfb caused us to schedule a Bin-NMU of
gtk2-engines on hppa in order to rebuild it against the new directfb.
Which brings us to the second problem: the resulting gtk2-engines-udeb
2.16.1-2+b1 has completely fucked up dependencies! It depends on
libcairo2, libglib2.0-0 and libgtk2.0-0 instead of their -udeb
counterparts!

I don’t know if this is an hppa-specific problem as well, or it just
means that gtk2-engines cannot be safely Bin-NMUed. In either case, it
needs a fix.

I’m CC'ing -boot to see if they can take a look in order to better
diagnose the problem.

Cheers,

Hello,

I’m marking this bug as fixed: it was determined the non-udeb
dependencies were caused by a bug in the toolchain, and all affected
packages have been rebuilt now with a corrected version and no longer
exhibit this problem.

Cheers,
