Bug Description

While trying to use libmount-dev development files via pkgconfig I'm getting error:

ruff@box:~/co/e17/efl$ pkg-config --cflags 'mount >= 2.20'
Package blkid was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `blkid.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
Package 'blkid', required by 'mount', not found

The package appears to be listed in Requires.private field:
ruff@box:~/co/e17/efl$ grep blkid `dpkg-query -L libmount-dev | grep mount.pc`
Requires.private: blkid

At the same time required package is not listed in the dependencies:
ruff@box:~/co/e17/efl$ apt-cache show libmount-dev | grep Depend | tail -1
Depends: libc6-dev | libc-dev, libmount1 (= 2.20.1-5.1ubuntu2), uuid-dev

This bug was fixed in the package util-linux - 2.25.1-3ubuntu1

---------------
util-linux (2.25.1-3ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian unstable to get some packaging bug fixes.
    Remaining Ubuntu changes:
    - Regularly trim SSDs automatically (core-1311-ssd-trimming):
      + Add debian/fstrim-all.cron: Call fstrim --all. Installed as
        /etc/cron.weekly/fstrim.
    - Upstart support:
      + Add hwclock{-save}.upstart, and install them in debian/rules.
      + Drop debian/hwclock.rules and hwclock.default.
    - Add mountall-options.patch, see patch header.
    - Add debian/libblkid1.maintscript to clean up /etc/blkid.conf on upgrade.
      This needs to be kept until after Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
  * Revert move to unified libsystemd-dev, we still have an older systemd in
    Ubuntu. This will be done in Ubuntu 15.04.

util-linux (2.25.1-3) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Ben Hutchings ]
  * hwclock-set: Don't use 'touch' to create stamp file, as it may not be
    included in an initramfs (Really closes: #763823)

  [ Andreas Henriksson ]
  * Put uuid-runtime in Section utils.
    Thanks to Ben Finney for the suggestion (Closes: #764039)
  * Cherry-pick upstream commit 8026fa9bc752
    "build-sys: use -lutil for BSD only"
    debian/patches/build-sys-use-lutil-for-BSD-only.patch
  * Upload to unstable.

util-linux (2.25.1-2) experimental; urgency=medium

  [ Andreas Henriksson ]
  * Make libmount-dev depend on libblkid-dev (LP: #1096581)
  * Drop uuid-dev dependency in libmount-dev package
  * Drop explicit disabling of pivot_root on non-linux
  * Attempt to stop uuidd before usermod in postinst (LP: #1374648)
  * Change build-dep to new unified libsystemd-dev (Closes: #763808)

  [ Ben Hutchings ]
  * hwclock-set: Use stamp file in /run/udev to ensure we set the clock
    only once if installed in the initramfs (Closes: #763823)
