Comment (by knarf):

 Replying to [comment:17 eschnett]:
 > No, the hwloc package manager's decision is not correct. libhwloc-dev
 provides a library libhwloc.a that cannot be used without libltdl.a. Thus,
 it either needs to depend on the libltdl-dev package, or needs to provide
 a library libhwloc.a that does not have this dependency.

 Yes, I missed the .a file in the -dev package. I assumed this to be in the
 hwloc package, if at all present. In this case, it would indeed need to be
 reported to the Ubuntu package maintainers. The respective Debian package
 has the missing dependencies, but not yet in the released version - which
 means Debian is likely affected too, in the current release.

 > If you want to provide a work-around, then I suggest to do this in the
 system-specific file "ubuntu.cfg" of Simfactory.

 I don't think that the current option lists for these specify a static
 build. We should probably give the correct flag (--static or not) to pkg-
 config, and in this case that should work, shouldn't it?
