Purging chroot-autobuild/build/buildd/plasma-widget-menubar-0.1.15

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package plasma-widget-menubar - 0.1.15-0ubuntu2

---------------
plasma-widget-menubar (0.1.15-0ubuntu2) oneiric; urgency=low

  * Fix FTBFS by adding missing build-depends on libx11-dev (LP: #829503)

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

This looks like a bug in kde4libs to me, not in plasma-widget-menubar; why doesn't kdelibs5-dev have a dependency on libx11-dev, if its headers include X11/Xlib.h?

[Scott Kitterman (kitterman)]

Because this only affects a very few of the kdelibs5-dev rdepends and it's not worth the extra build time to add it for all packages that use kdelib5-dev (this is the Debian qt-kde team view) and it's not worth carrying a diff in Ubuntu for. svuorela is the Debian qt-kde team person to talk to if someone wants to change it there.

[Rohan Garg (rohangarg)]

Debian Maintainers disagree over making kdelibs5-dev depend on libX11-dev since it's only a 'cornercase' header file that you normally not would use for writing KDE applications.
