How to check missing header files included from another header file
Hi,
Development Package X has a header file that includes another header file, provided by package Y. But package X doesn't have the requires set to dependupon package Y. Do you know any tools to check which packages has missing dependencies ? |
Packages do not depend on headers from other packages.
Unless you want to compile a source package. And then : A file INSTALL or other documentation will tell. I.e. the person writing the software knows from where the headers origins. And will hopefully write a message about it. No instructions : Use the online "source dependency lists", Debian, Ubuntu: Example : http://packages.debian.org/source/sid/libusb ( 20,000 packages.) Tools : The (autotools) configure script in a source package is meant to tell, what's missing. But again : Only if the author includes the search / info for the dependency. The cmake, qmake, scons etc. 'configure tools' have similar functions. Further questions ? : Then please tell which Linux OS, you are using. http://www.linuxquestions.org/linux/...Ask_a_Question And include an example of a package with missing dependencies. ( Headers.) .. |
