Source: popt Version: 1.16-11 Tags: patch User: helm...@debian.org Usertags: rebootstrap
popt fails to cross build from source, because its build dependency on api-sanity-checker is unsatisfiable. In general, Architecture: all packages can never satisfy cross Build-Depends unless marked Multi-Arch: foreign. In this case however, api-sanity-checker is entirely unnecessary, because it is only used for testing and we cannot test during cross builds anyway. Thus annotating the dependency with <!nocheck> is sufficient to get satisfiable cross Build-Depends again. I used reproducible builds to verify that this change does not affect the resulting binary packages. Please consider applying the attached patch. Helmut
