Bug#1031812: crystal missing several dependencies

[Taavi Väänänen]

Package: crystal
Version: 1.6.0+dfsg-2
Severity: serious

Hi!



$ crystal hello.cr --: 1: cc: not found


After installing the 'gcc' package, the error turns to
$ crystal hello.cr

collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status


Only after also installing the 'libevent-dev' package it starts to work:
$ crystal hello.cr Hello World!

I am setting this as 'serious' as a violation of policy §3.5.

thanks,
Taavi
