Description Enrico Scholz 2001-12-21 22:25:39 UTC
The bonobo build-process creates and installs libtool library files which
should be in the -devel package also:

$ ls /var/tmp/bonobo-1.0.17-root/usr/lib/*.la
/var/tmp/bonobo-1.0.17-root/usr/lib/libbonobo-print.la
/var/tmp/bonobo-1.0.17-root/usr/lib/libbonobo.la
/var/tmp/bonobo-1.0.17-root/usr/lib/libbonobox.la
/var/tmp/bonobo-1.0.17-root/usr/lib/libefs.la

$ rpm -ql `rpm -qa | grep bonobo` | grep .la
/usr/bin/bonobo-slay
/usr/bin/bonobo-audio-ulaw
/usr/bin/bonobo-text-plain
/usr/lib/bonobo/monikers/libmoniker_std.la
/usr/lib/bonobo/plugin/libstorage_efs.la
/usr/lib/bonobo/plugin/libstorage_fs.la

$ rpm -qa | grep bonobo
bonobo-activation-0.9.3.90-1
bonobo-devel-1.0.17-1
bonobo-1.0.17-1
bonobo-activation-devel-0.9.3.90-1

Comment 1 Havoc Pennington 2001-12-22 01:02:03 UTC
Does anything actually want these files? (other than other .la files from
compiled when bonobo .la files were installed)

Comment 2 Enrico Scholz 2001-12-22 01:28:12 UTC
Don't know if a specific package needs them, but libtool uses them to determine
dependencies at static linking.

Comment 3 Havoc Pennington 2001-12-22 14:58:28 UTC
But you'd normally link bonobo using the output of "gnome-config --libs bonobo"
which already has all the deps, right.

Comment 4 Enrico Scholz 2002-01-10 18:41:35 UTC
You're right. Closing the bug...
