[Bug 1859395] Re: libxen-4.9: missing libxenstat

[Andreas Hasenack]

Hi,

libxen-4.9 is used at runtime, and contains the dynamic library. libxen-
dev is used for development and contains the header files (*.h), the
dynamic library .so link, and the static library. That's how it is
supposed to be. Just adding /usr/includexenstat.h to libxen-4.9 wouldn't
work, as other header files are also likely needed, and the dynamic
library .so link is also needed. The static library might not, depending
on your compile options, but it goes together with the dev package per
policy. See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-sharedlibs.html
#static-libraries for the details.

I'm going to close this bug as invalid, but if I misunderstood your
point, please feel free to reopen it and clarify.

Thanks!
