Details

The acl package is not linked to the libattr.so library nor uses commandline tools of attr. It just use the error_context data structure from attr/error_context.h, which needed only on build time. The used getxattr() function is provided by glibc.

Please move attr (and libattr.so) from depends=() to makedepends=() of acl, and add glibc to depends=().

It is linked a build time, but the dependency is dropped at link time. Good catch, pushed to testing.
