[Bug 1388558] Re: [packaging]Missing dependency to libxpathselect1.4 in Ubuntu 14.04

 

Thank you for trying to make Unity better.

The xpathselect library is dynamically loaded at runtime to provide an
exported automated testing and debug interface over D-Bus.  It is not a
normal part of the functioning of the Unity shell and making it a
package dependency of Unity itself would be the wrong thing to do.

A recent change downgraded the associated message from an error to a
warning.  Unless you're running the automated test suite (unity-
autopilot, which _does_ have a package dependency on libxpathselect1.4)
this message can be safely ignored.

** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu)

Title:
  [packaging]Missing dependency to libxpathselect1.4 in Ubuntu 14.04

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  The following message printed when I run '$ compiz --replace' in the terminal:
  `````
  ERROR  unity.debug.interface DebugDBusInterface.cpp:216 Unable to load entry point in libxpathselect: libxpathselect.so.1.4: Can't open shared object file: File not found
  `````

  It seems that Unity(or it's component) depends on this library but
  however, not installed with unity package.

  Manually install libxpathselect1.4 package removes that error message.
