Lintian tag: missing-dependency-on-libc
Type: error
Description (from lintian-explain-tags
)
The listed file appears to be linked against the C library, but the
package doesn't depend on the C library package. Normally this indicates
that ${shlibs:Depends} was omitted from the Depends line for this package
in debian/control.
All shared libraries and compiled binaries must be run through
dpkg-shlibdeps to find out any libraries they are linked against (often
via the dh_shlibdeps debhelper command). The package containing these
files must then depend on ${shlibs:Depends} in debian/control to get the
proper package dependencies for those libraries.
Please refer to Generating dependencies on shared libraries (Section
8.6.1) in the Debian Policy Manual for details.
