maintscript-calls-ldconfig

The given maintainer script calls ldconfig, but such calls in maintainer scripts should be replaced instead by a dpkg trigger.

Please replace the ldconfig call with an activate-noawait ldconfig trigger. With Debhelper, it is usually sufficient to add that line to debian/<package>.triggers.

This warning may appear if the package was compiled with Debhelper older than version 9.20151004. Assuming all ldconfig invocations were added by Debhelper, this tag should disappear when the package is rebuilt with a newer version of Debhelper.

Severity: warning
Experimental: false

Screens

glibc/control/ldconfig

The packages built from glibc (notably libc-bin) need to call ldconfig in order to implement the ldconfig trigger.
