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

[Stéphane Graber]

Hello Scott, or anyone else affected,

Accepted check into saucy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/check/0.9.10-4ubuntu1.1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

Title:
  pkg-config broken on saucy (only) -pthread for both --libs and
  --cflags of check.pc are missing

Status in “check” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “check” source package in Saucy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  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
  https://launchpadlibrarian.net/168496724/buildlog_ubuntu-saucy-
  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.
