 You might want "grep -r" instead of find ... -exec grep which will exec
 grep for each file and is very inefficient.  i.e.:
    grep -ir X_window::x_map /home/mira/zita-convolver

 Well *that* is the actual problem: the symbol is listed in
 debian/libclxclient3.symbols.*, but is not exported.

 It's not good enough to grep for X_window::x_map, this function is
 actually defined in the X_window class directly, see clxclient.h:
    class X_window
    {
    public:
  [...]
    int  x_map (void) const { return XMapWindow   (_disp->_dpy, _wind); }


 While we're at it, why does this package build-depend on
 libasound2-dev and declares itself in section "sound"??  Seems
 completely wrong to me.
