Package: libslang2-dev
Version: 2.2.2-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: renders package unusable

Hi,

why wondering why the .a was being used for a build of mine, I noticed
that there was indeed a .so for your package, but that the .so was a
broken symlink…
| cy...@talisker:~$ readlink -f /usr/lib/libslang.so && ls -l /lib/libslang.so* 
| /lib/libslang.so.2.2.1
| lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      17 Dec  9 03:45 /lib/libslang.so.2 -> 
libslang.so.2.2.2
| -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1069720 Dec  6 12:45 /lib/libslang.so.2.2.2

Setting severity to grave, a broken .so in a -dev package leads to a
near-to-useless package.

I guess it could be even worse and result in the .a getting embedded in
other packages, meaning that if slang2 has to receive security-related
fixes, packages statically built against it would still be vulnerable.

Tagging security accordingly, so that it gets some attention from
security folks. (Wild guess: checking packages BD'ing on it uploaded
since the .so symlink got broken should help get a list of candidates.)

Mraw,
KiBi.
