Hello, is anybody from ubuntu going to have the courtesy to respond to this ?

Some additional information:

- this bug is now blocking LiVES 1.1.6 and higher from ubuntu, leaving only LiVES 1.1.4 in Karmic. This earlier version had some other unrelated bugs, so it does not give a good impression considering it was the first package version of LiVES in ubuntu.

- versions of LiVES on getdeb.net have been built without the incorrectly set LDFLAGS default. These packages work flawlessly.

- the manpage for dpkg-buildpkg clearly states that the default for LDFLAGS is empty. See http://man.cx/dpkg-buildpackage(1). Therefore the problem is specific to ubuntu and not to dpkg.
