[Bug 1289501] [NEW] pkg-config broken on saucy (only) -pthread for both --libs and --cflags of check.pc are missing

[Scott Kitterman]

Public bug reported:

This is already fixed via Debian in Trusty:

check (0.9.10-6) unstable; urgency=low

  * add -pthread to both --libs and --cflags of check.pc (sigh)

This causes incorrect linking in saucy.  See

amd64.clamav_0.98.1%2Bdfsg-2ubuntu1~13.10~ppa1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz for
an example.  This package builds fine on precise, quantal, and trusty.

>From the build logs:
Saucy:
configure: Summary of miscellaneous  features
              check       : -lcheck_pic -lrt -lm
Trusty:
configure: Summary of miscellaneous  features
              check       : -pthread -lcheck_pic -lrt -lm

The fix is to SRU the -6 change into Saucy.

[Impact]

 * Some packages will fail to build.  Since not all packages were
rebuilt after the new (broken) check version landed during Saucy
development, there may be, in addition to PPA packages like the example,
archive packages when cannot be built for security updates, SRU, etc.

[Test Case]

 * See the above build log for reproduction.

 * Once the new check package is in -proposed, i'll add -proposed to the
PPA and retry.  If it builds, win.

[Regression Potential]

 * Regression potential is negligible.
