[Bug 1101156] Re: libpango1.0-dev unusable for static builds

[Julian Taylor]

if not depending on -dev packages for static builds is a bug is debatable, shared libraries are the preferred way for distributions which packages cater to.
It certainly does not make it unusable

pangoft2 is in the -dev package in quantal:
libpango1.0-dev: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpangoft2-1.0.a

in which distribution is it not?

Title:
  libpango1.0-dev unusable for static builds

Status in “pango1.0” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The package has two problems using it with static builds:
  1. It doesn't pull the required libthai-dev and libselinux1-dev.
  2. The libpangoft2 library is only provided in the non-dev package in shared form, the static one is missing from the -dev package.
