[Nathaniel Clark]

For el7.4 (and el7.5):

libblkid requires libuuid

libblkid-devel requires pkgconfig(uuid) which is provided by libuuid-devel

So "-luuid" should only be present if "-lblkid" is present.  I will submit a patch.

llverdev doesn't require libblkid when being built, it's an optional build dependency.

[Nathaniel Clark]

With regards to libuuid, I think it's actually a dependency of libblkid

So the following patch:

https://review.whamcloud.com/32726

may not be 100% correct.

[James A Simmons]

So I was right. We do need to add the dependency to lustre.spec.in and debain/control{.main}
