Bug Description

Binary package hint: qtiplot

Attempting to build qtiplot_0.9.8-2ubuntu1 in my PPA failed for natty with the following message:

../3rdparty/qwt/lib/libqwt.a ../3rdparty/qwtplot3d/lib/libqwtplot3d.a -lgsl -lgslcblas -lorigin2 -lpython2.6 -lm -lpng -L/usr/lib -lQtAssistantClient -lpthread -lGLU -lGL -lQtSvg -lQt3Support -lQtXml -lQtOpenGL -lQtGui -lQtNetwork -lQtCore
/usr/bin/ld: ../tmp/qtiplot/minigzip.o: undefined reference to symbol 'gzclose'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'gzclose' is defined in DSO /lib/libz.so.1 so try adding it to the linker command line
/lib/libz.so.1: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This is most likely caused by the removal of indirect linkage by default in binutils-gold. We will need to add -lz to the library list

From upstream tracker:

Hi,

The way you build QtiPlot is not my concern and can never be a bug in QtiPlot.

Regards,
Ion Vasilief

---------------
qtiplot (0.9.8-2ubuntu1) natty; urgency=low

  * Merge with debian unstable (LP: #656046). Remaining changes:
    - Build-Depends on libqtassistantclient-dev

      is removed in qt > 4.6 (LP: #598826)
  * Added 03_binutils-gold-fix.diff: Fix FTBFS with binutils-gold (LP: #663332)

qtiplot (0.9.8-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Bump standards version to 3.9.1
  * Add comments to patches
  * Removing accidental patch, debian-changes that prevents qtiplot from
    depending on python 2.6 (Closes: #594341)
