Fwd: Bug#399482: libcommoncpp2: build process cannot find ldconfig

[Mark Purcell]

David,

I have received a report about your install-local-data rule in libcommoncpp2.

Apparently you have made some assumptions about the target directory, which 
isn't always correct.

The full bug report is available at http://bugs.debian.org/399482.

Could I also ask you to maintain the Cc: in any replies to this issue, to keep 
the Debian Bug Tracking system informed.

Mark

This is caused by a goofy install-data-local rule in the upstream Makefile
which checks whether the target directory is under /usr, and if so, munges
/etc/ld.so.conf along the way.  In general, the target directory when
building a Debian package will *not* be under /usr, so I'm downgrading this
report since it's specific to your build env.

Thanks,
