Package: kdelibs Version: 4:3.5.7.dfsg.1-7 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
Upstream kdelibs has provided two methods for using libthai to analyze Thai word boundaries in KHTML: by explicit linking or by dynamic loading. So far, libthai has secretly served Thai KDE users through the latter method. However, this requires users to install libthai-dev, although they don't want to compile any program against libthai and its dependency. This is because the KLibLoader used to dlopen() it requires *.la file. And this has just been removed in the lastest libthai, as it's not so desirable to ship it, and none of libthai's reverse dependencies require it any more. To continue serving Thai KDE users, I think it should be explicitly linked, by having kdelibs build-depend on libthai-dev, and passing - --with-libthai=yes it its configure options. - -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=th_TH.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=th_TH.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFG+7yHqgzR7tCLR/4RArTTAJ0ZVLNQ39vm3ZOq7PwAaesnSBOhuQCglQBs itF0hLCUwuf3IUZ3zD5D+Is= =0cJy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
