Thanks for reporting. I found a corresponding Debian bug report which might shed some light on things. It looks like gtest must be compiled with the exact same flags as when you build/run your tests. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726021 for more information.
** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #726021 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726021 ** Also affects: gtest (Debian) via http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=726021 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gtest in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1436661 Title: Inconsistent with Ubuntu package management Status in gtest package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in gtest package in Debian: Unknown Bug description: I appreciate that some people prefer the notion of compiling everything from source, like on Gentoo Linux, but on Ubuntu can we please follow the standard packaging practice and have binaries in binary packages? This seems to be the package creation workflow for this package: Compile Source Package => Binary Package => Source that must be compiled by the user If it is felt that it is absolutely mandatory to not provide binaries then why not provide a 'proper' source package that is consistent with other source packages. That is to say, one which allows you to actually build the real binary package.
