Comment 1 for bug 1300506

I have looked to the shared libraries cache and there is no trace (as expected) of the library reported as missing libgvc.so.6 (this is a symlink to libgvc.so.6.0.0 the actual lib).

$ ldconfig -p | grep libgvc
 libgvc.so.5 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libgvc.so.5
 libgvc.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libgvc.so
$
$ cd /
$
$ locate libgvc.so.5
/usr/lib/libgvc.so.5
/usr/lib/libgvc.so.5.0.0
$ locate libgvc.so.6
$

To cir-convent this bug I resorted to make a symlink libgvc6.0

$ sudo ln -sv libgvc.so.5.0.0 /usr/lib/libgvc.so.6

$ ls -l /usr/lib/libgvc*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Jan 14 14:42 /usr/lib/libgvc.so -> libgvc.so.5.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 Jan 14 14:42 /usr/lib/libgvc.so.5 -> libgvc.so.5.0.0
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 506184 Jan 14 14:42 /usr/lib/libgvc.so.5.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Apr 1 16:02 /usr/lib/libgvc.so.6 -> libgvc.so.5
$

However this is not a regular procedure. I would like to know where the request from emacs24 install comes from ? for a non-existent shared library.
