Still present in wily! This seems like such an easy thing to fix...

I also understand that those librarues, namely libgtest and libgtest_main should be now built from the source, by the user. You install the sources in /usr/src/gtest/src and you also provide a CMakeLists.txt file into /usr/src/gtest However, please take into account the following: 1. there is no specific guide about how to build the sources (cd /usr/src/gtest/src && cmake .. && make & cp libgtest*.* /usr/lib/) 2. the above commands require admin rights (aka sudo), because the /usr/src is not writeable and the compiler cannot write its outputs therein 3. there is no "make install" target in the (CMake-)generated Makefile, thus the need for the above manuale file copying 4. the above commands are tedious to enter manually, after installing the package, so I suggest a script to be run during the installation and building and installing those libraries (if you insinst in not providing the libgtest0 package no more) 5. making cmake package a dependency for the libgtest-dev/gtest package is overkill and, also, could disturb the average user Thank you.
