I've added a new checkpkg module a few days ago, which runs "ldd -r"
and greps the output for "symbol not found:". This catches shared
libraries which are not self-contained.
Some of you will hit the problem in which this check throws a false
positive: There might be libraries which are non-self-contained by
design. For now, the easiest way to go around this is to disable this
particular module by removing the executable bit from the file:
chmod 644 gar/bin/checkpkg.d/checkpkg-missing-symbols.py
It's only a temporary workaround, before we get the overrides
mechanism in place.
