Bug Description
I've just installed libgtest-dev package on Ubuntu 12.04, but it does not contain library files (neither static one nor shared object).
So linker fails as follows:
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgtest
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
To post a comment you must log in.
Upstream does not recommend building a shared library but to instead
built it yourself from the sources contained in the package.
See NEWS.Debian and README.Debian:
gtest (1.6.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
Use of precompiled libgtest is no longer recommended. See README.Debian
for instructions on using gtest with your projects. The precompiled
shared library has been removed and the static library will be removed
in a future upload.
The script gtest-config is no longer supplied since upstream's -based build is deprecated.
